Abstract
The symposium on "Social Research for Development" was held on May 5-11, 1981, in Cairo, Egypt; by the Social Research Center (SRC) of The American University in Cairo (AUC). The Symposium was supported by funds from Battelle Human Affairs Research Center, Ford Foundation, International Development Research Center {IDRC}, and the Population Council. The theme of the Symposium was selected in respons.e to the increased concerns of social scientists, policymakers and funding agencies about the current status and new directions of social science research, its role in the process of social and economic development, and its contribution to policy-relevant issues. The Symposium, therefore, aimed at providing a valuable opportunity for the invaed participants to exchange ideas and views on social research findings, methodologies, priorities, strategies, and funding as they relate to policy issues of various aspects of social and economic development
