But It Is no less necessary to manage the available resources In a rational manner by planning and programming research and development. It Is only then that the return from science wll I be greater than the expenditure on lt. This Is evident from the experience of all the leading powers In the realm of technology. Including the USSR.. For Instance, the Soviet Union does not merely Increase Its spending on research. This spending Is coordinated with the national plan as part of the Comprehensive 260 Programme for promoting scientific and technological progress In the USSR In the period up to tne year 2000 and with 170 concrete government scientific and technological programmes Included Into the 11th Five-Year Plan (14). · . It Is also worthwhile considering rechannel ling part of the money to science and training of scientific personnel from other Items of expenditure In the developing countries. For Instance, their military spending already topped 80,000 mill ton dol Iars In 1981. What Is more, their share In world military spending has exceeded their share In the world GNP (15).

On the contrary, Its containment would promote the development of national science and education since It costs more to train one officer than one scientist and the upkeep of one soldier Is more expensive than that of one student.

analysis: The text discusses the importance of allocating resources effectively for scientific research and development, highlighting the need for planning and coordination. It also touches on the topic of military spending in developing countries and suggests that redirecting funds towards science and education could be more beneficial. This focus on resource allocation and the relationship between military spending and scientific development suggests that the text is primarily concerned with economic development and science and technology.
