Manpower.

The degree of skill of the existing population is the respective precondition for the whole productive activity, the main accumulation of wealth, the most important result of antecedent labour existing in the living labour itself. (Karl Marx) The number and the qualification of manpower are the most important factors of the technological and economic progress. This fact is verified by many researches. That is why manpower planning is gai- ning more and more importance. In socialist countries manpower planning is part and parcel of the whole planning system. This is valid for the national level as well as for the regional and enter- prise level. The G.D.R. has created its own system of manapower planning during the past twenty years. The paper will inform about the essential points of this system. We think that this system is in its general aspects, its frame and methods applicable not only in the developed socialist countries. It is also applicable in developing countries which want to build a socialist society.
