Economic Issues in East–South Relations

Robert M. Cutler

Abstract:
In the years following the 1973–1974 oil embargo, the international trading behavior of the East European members of the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CMEA) diverged more and more from that of the Soviet Union, especially in trade with the less-developed countries. This trend reflects not only different political, economic, and legal perspectives on relations between industrialized societies in the Third World, but also individual national efforts to gain practical advantage in an increasingly competitive world market. The present article reviews one American monograph, three Soviet monographs, and three edited volumes multinationally produced with East European participation (including one in French) that address these themes.
