Lowenfeld, International Legal Process, Vol. I, ch. 8 (1968). I updated The story through 1972 for my students but did not publish The result when it became apparent that as extended beyond 1972, The International Coffee Agreement was only a shell, not a real instrument of international control.

4 In his 1100-page teaching materials on International Economic Relations (1977), Jackson devotes about 12 pages to The subject; in my own series of volumes on International Economic Law (Vols. I-VI (1975-78)), I have thus far not addressed The subject, but I might do so in The context of a volume on economic development if The right focus were to emerge.
