Professor Janos Kornai,
Országos Tervhivatal,
Nádor Utca 11,
Budapest V. Hongarije
Dear Professor Kornai,
I am writing to you as the chairman of the F. de Vries Foundation, created to honour the memory of the late Professor F. de Vries, a leading economist for decades in the Netherlands. Periodically the Foundation organizes the "F. de Vries lectures" for an audience interested in economic science at the academic level. The text of the lecture is published in the form of a small book. The Board of the Foundation has the honour to invite you to give these lectures in 1971, preferably during the last week of April, in the premises of the Netherlands School of Economics, Burg. Oudlaan 50, Rotterdam. It is customary for our guest lecturers to lecture three times, on two successive days. Each lecture could last from 45 to 60 minutes or so. The Foundation offers you a honorarium of Dfls. 2000.- and takes care of your travel as well as your hotel costs.
The subject the Board has in mind is an appraisal of Eastern European economic regimes, including some comparison among the various nations involved and with some Western economies, but the precise contents and title can be chosen by yourself. It will be appreciated if upon leaving you can make the text available in order that publication be not unduly delayed.
Hoping that you find it possible to accept, I am,
Yours sincerely,
(J. Tinbergen)
