The need for a policy of regionalisation

“Possibilities of a regional structural policy in industrial states as demonstrated by the example of the Federal Republic of Germany.” This was the subject of the main lecture which Senator Kern delivered on Dec. 20, 1972, in the course of his tour of Japan in Tokio at the Keidanren, the most influential of Japanese business organisations. The Senator’s lecture provoked a lively discussion in which 30 leading members of the Japanese business world participated.
