Röpke called foreign aid "the ­great action by which the ideas and methods of collectivist policy are carried into the world economy" and singled out economist Gunnar Myrdal as proposing the "transposition" of the modern welfare state from the Western to what Röpke called the "undeveloped" world (consciously avoiding the normative term "­underdeveloped").
