Abstract: Abstract One of the most dangerous aspects of the uncertainties described in the previous chapter is that they may perpetuate the energy constraint on the growth of the world economy. The two exceptionally large increases in the price of oil, plus the threat of similar increases, have made it impossible even for industrial countries to reconcile in the short run high employment levels with low inflation rates, and the two domestic objectives with that of external balance. The financial position of many developing countries has deteriorated to such an extent that it reached crisis proportions in the early 1980s.
