Is there a Phillips curve relating accuracy and relevancy? Are there significant variables in planning and forecasting which are not readily quantified? In this day when people are beginning to ask whether economic development is really desirable, such questions acquire a new urgency. They are examined in this concluding paper in our symposium. Dean Charles‐worth is Director, Office of Business Development and Government Services, College of Business and Economics, University of Kentucky.
