Based on the International Seminar on Resource Policy Modeling held in Herzlia, Israel, in December 1980, the essays include: (1) a description and analysis of energy-economy interactions, process analysis, econometric estimation, and input-output techniques, with examples from the US, Canada, and Israel; (2) demand estimation, pricing policies, and investment planning of the electricity sector; (3) a description and applications of mineral-supply models covering mineral-supply functions, resource depletion, cost of minerals, and problems concerning government regulations of the US coal industry; and (4) an overview of the energy-related decision-making process, including a discussion of the role of models and modelers in policy formulation. 212 references, 90 figures, 11 tables.

Deese brings together leading researchers and writers from different countries and disciplines in a coherent framework to highlight the most important and promising research and policy questions regarding international trade. The content includes fundamental theory about trade as international communication and its effects on growth and inequality; the domestic politics of trade and trends in government trade policies; the implications of bilateral and regional trade (and investment) agreements; key issues of how trade is governed globally; and how trade continues to define and advance globalization from immigration to the internet.

Handbook of the International Political Economy of Trade

The issue of appropriate management of spent reactor fuel is discussed. Part I of the book consists of an institutional and political analysis by David A. Deese and Frederick C. Williams, in which they develop a model for international spent fuel storage based on the assumption that the international political system changes only incrementally. Part II puts forth a region-by-region analysis of the political feasibility of regional or multinational arrangement for storage of spent fuel. Part III concerns the feasibility of international spent fuel management, and Part IV examines the broader political context of nuclear energy. (JMT)
