520 _aThis monograph, prepared for Unesco by Dr Jorge Eliécer Ruiz, contains a brief summary of the social and cultural evolution of the country, a description of cultural activity at present, including in particular the work the government is accomplishing through the intermediary of the Colombian Institute of Culture, and a description of the projects being undertaken by the present government. Since Dr. Jorge Eliécer Ruiz is at present Deputy Director of Cultural Communications of the institute, and in charge of the cultural development and policy project being carried out with the technical collaboration of Unesco, he has been able to make a comprehensive critical study of the situation and not simply an enumeration of activities and programmes. It is clear that cultural development as a factor of social policy has acquired, in the past few years, an importance which could not have been foreseen twenty years ago, and that at the present time culture, regarded as the expression of the creative potentialities of the human being through attitudes, skills, knowledge and objects, constitutes the basis of any development project at national level. Instead of being an activity of the privileged classes, a leisure occupation or a subject for anthropological research, culture is now regarded as the summation of a people's personality and the underlying motive for the preservation of its national identity. The task now being pursued by the Colombian Institute of Culture corresponds to one of the aims of the overall policy of the government, which is designed to lead to the emergence of a juster and more democratic society in which all individuals, whatever their station therein, contribute actively to the attainment of the national objectives. Inasmuch as no cultural policy can ever he static hut should adapt to changes in the national situation, it is very probable that some of the aims here described will be modified in accordance with circumstances and with the funds available. None the less, although certain of the judgements expressed are inevitably those of the author, the monograph which has been written by Dr. Ruiz and is to be disseminated by Unesco fairly describes the cultural policy which is at present being pursued and which the present governing board of the Colombian Institute of Culture intends to promote.
