This book is in four parts. Each seeks to adopt an empirical as well as policy perspective. Accordingly, the focus is on data availability and macro-economic and policy perspectives. First is attention to the basic parameters of energy in the region with an emphasis on energy in transportation. Second is attention to economic factors, with a focus on the demographic drivers of economic activity and implications for transportation and development. Third is a policy perspective focusing on the role of government, state petroleum enterprises, and pressure for social adjustment to new and stressful conditions. The fourth part seeks to highlight new influences and new opportunities. A final section addresses implications for transportation and puts forth the alternative criteria for policy choices consistent with different development objectives. 2022-04-08T04:30:17Z 2022-04-08T04:30:17Z 1982 Book 0669047996 9780669047998 http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/470915143 https://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/141781 Choucri, N.
