Summary: The publication of this series has been undertaken as part of the programme adopted by the General Conference of Unesco at its fifteenth session for the study of cultural policies. In this context 'cultural policy' is taken to mean a body of operational principles, administrative and budgetary practices and procedures which provide a basis for cultural action by the State. Obviously, there cannot be one cultural policy suited to all countries; each Member State determines its own cultural policy according to the cultural values, aims and choices it sets for itself. It has been largely recognized that there is a need for exchanges of information and experience between countries as well as for cross-national investigations on specific themes, research into concepts and methods, etc. The aim of this series, therefore, is to contribute to the dissemination of information by presenting both the findings of such studies and various national surveys illustrating problems, experiments and achievements in individual countries chosen as representative of differing socio-economic systems, regional areas and levels of development. To achieve a measure of comparability, an attempt has been made to follow, as far as possible, a fairly similar pattern and method of approach. This survey has been prepared for Unesco by Mr. Charles C. Mark, Director of the Office of State and Community Operations, National Endowment for the Arts. The opinions expressed by him are his own, and do not necessarily reflect the views of Unesco. (Font. Prefaci)
