Abstract
The countries included in the FAO study are Ceylon, Pakistan (where the case of present Pakistan is distinguished from that of Bangladesh), Japan, Indonesia, Morocco, Ivory Coast, Egypt, Colombia, Central America (mainly Guatemala), and Hungary. A uniform format was adopted in these case studies to help compare the experiences, performance and development strategies of these countries. Each of the country studies was subdivided into three major parts: (1) a description of the existing situation during the sixties (and in some cases during the earlier periods) and the performance with respect to employment and other development objectives; (2) an analysis of the major factors responsible for un- and underemployment; and (3) a review and analysis of the development and employment strategies followed by each country.
