1 This chapter encompasses four essays dealing with different, albeit overlapping, issues of the European Community.

2 Other authors touched upon this subject, notably W. Wagner in his introductory essay to this volume. One cannot agree with his comparison of the Suez crisis with the taking of U.S. hostages in Iran, and that the Soviet Union speculated that the United States was considering an invasion of Iran (p. 7).

3 W. Wagner, supra note 2, pointed out that the Soviet invasion was the event that led into the second cold war period. This notion, however, is contradicted by E. Schulz, who sees the end of “relaxed” U.S.-USSR relations as early as in 1974 (p. 161).

4 One has been mentioned, supra note 3. See also the conclusion on USSR-Iraq relations, drawn from the Financial Times. See p. 110 n.28. Also, on Soviet military expenditures, see p. 175 n.39.

5 We could argue over the choice of topics for this chapter, which contains one essay on OPEC and another on the “New Industrialized Countries” (which has an unnecessary subchapter on West Germany and its relations with these countries). Regrettably, the editors did not include papers on the international monetary system or an analysis of growing external debts.

6 These are mentioned briefly at pp. 160 and 169, respectively.
