Descrizione del libro

This 1976 volume originated in the mood of disillusion and despair which followed the Third United Nations Conference on Trade and Development in Santiago in 1972. It considers what unexploited possibilities might be open to the less developed countries in international affairs, which would generate a fairer balance between rich and poor nations.
