borne by the U.S. The Servicio Productivity governing and policy
councils were similar to those in Europe; many of the Technical
Assistance services prepared for the European Centers were used by
the Servicios; and there was similar Productivity improvement
program emphasis through projects in management, production, and
training. For the smaller less industrialized nations there were
additional TA functions in investment promotion, and in assistance
in the start-up of new small industries.

In 1951 in Latin America, immediately after the start-up
of the European Productivity movements, the Institute of Inter-
American Affairs (IIAA) 63 conducted industry sectors surveys and
conferences with senior government officials in several of the
larger nations of Latin America. Only three countries, Brazil and
Chile, and later Bolivia, elected to initiate Servicio Productivity
programs. Argentina, Uruguay, Peru, and Mexico refused to
undertake Productivity programs. It was only as late as 1955 after
the European Productivity Centers were well known, and their
substantial advances in productivity proven, that Mexico requested
U.S. cooperation in establishing an Industrial Productivity Center.
The latter request followed Mexican visits to the French Center. 64
The IIAA was the U.S. Latin American technical assistance
agency, independent of the State Department.
