This book, originally published in 1996, traces the development of
US government policy toward the oil industry during the 1920s and
1930s when the domestic syustem of production control was
established. It then charts the deveopment and collapse of oil
import controls, and the wild scramble for economic rents generated
by Government regulation. It discusses the two oil crises and the
'phantom' Gulf War crisis, and the importance of public opinion in
shaping the policy agenda. It also provides an in-depth study of
Congressional oil votes from the 1950s to the 1980s and the
formation of oil policy, beginning with theories of economic
regulation, the role of interest groups in developing the policy
agenda and the role of money in politics.
