This annotated bibliography of more than 2,000 entries, current through 1977, sheds light on the national planning idea as a substantive issue in past, present, and future U.S. public policy; presents a bibliographic structure that suggests new emphases, relationships, and interdisciplinary approaches; and makes more easily accessible to students and researchers the enormous volume of literature on the subject. Its emphasis is on material from four disciplines—public administration, political science, economics, and sociology—and, to a lesser extent, on eleven key national planning-related fields. The bibliography is a companion to The National Planning Idea in U.S. Public Policy: Five Alternative Approaches, to be published by Westview in September of this year.
