The quest for a viable policy toward the Third World will be a
dominant theme in U.S. foreign policy throughout this decade. But
before any judgments can be made about the range of choices for
U.S. policymakers, it is necessary to understand the pressures that
are likely to confront developing nations during the 1980s as well
as the efforts of these nations as a group to extract greater
resources and attention from the international system. This book
considers policy responses that have been and are likely to be
implemented by developing nations as they face increasing pressures
in the areas of food, energy, trade, and debt - the main areas of
interaction within the international system. The author also
presents an analysis of how the North-South Dialogue functions and
why it has produced so few genuine settlements, providing an
additional perspective on whether the pressures on the developing
countries might be diminished by successful global negotiations.
The conclusions reached by examining policy responses and the
Dialogue itself provide the basis for a number of specific policy
prescriptions. They also help to establish a framework within which
U.S. policy initiatives toward the Third World must be formed. The
two concluding chapters discuss these policy choices in detail,
carefully analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of persisting
in present policies, attempting a genuine global restructuring,
choosing to concentrate attention on a few "new influentials" in
the Third World, and trying to construct a new approach out of
selected elements of the other policy approaches.
