This is the prosperity volume in a three-volume set on peace, prosperity and democracy. The author uses specific issues such as goods exchange, immigration policy, volunteerism in technical assistance, international exchange of factories, and monetary exchange rates to construct a polyvalent framework of analysis. In this examination of economic and technology policy from both a domestic and international perspective, Stuart Nagel has created an important and lasting contribution to the field of public policy studies.

The late Stuart S. Nagel was Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Illinois and Coordinator of the Policy Studies Organization, Dirksen-Stevenson Institute and MKM Research Center.
