Political justice is the utilization of judicial proceedings for political ends. The political end, thus pursued, may be revolutionary or conservative, necessary from the community viewpoint or frivolous.

It seems therefore desirable to consider some of the overall problems of economic development, the nature of the economic growth that has resulted in the modern industrial capitalism of Western Europe and North America, the effect on underdeveloped countries of prior contact with economically advanced countries, the limitations of various methods of furthering development, and the prognosis for rapid and permanent economic change in the less advanced regions of the world.
