Abstract

In the Summer 1974 edition of the Pakistan Development Review. Mr. Ishrat Hussain wrote an article on an aspect of Pakistan's industrialization that has aroused considerable interest and concern in other developing countriesthe impact of technology and wage rate changes on the growth of industrial employment [2. 3 & 6]. While commending Mr. Hussain's efforts in having drawn attention to this aspect of our industrial strategy, it appears necessary to point out that his analysis contains an important error in the basic data. This note therefore is intended to correct the error in the data, rework the entire analysis, and suggest reasons why the conclusions drawn by Mr. Hussain are not warranted by the evidence he presents.
