Abstract
Professor Freeman diagnoses Heilbroner's Human Prospect as a neo-Malthusian interpretation of world trends. He focuses on the possibility of hope for mankind and the responsibility of intelligentsia in this debate. First he challenges Heilbroner's projections of population growth, particularly in the Third World, which he finds unjustified both factually and logically; second, he argues with the presentation of socio-economic and environmental global futures. From this stance he questions the political prospects, viewed by Heilbroner as a future of conflict and totalitarian regimes.
