Summary: | <p>Will the world need increased production of nuclear electricity to meet in the long term a growing demand for energy? This is the question that three authors address in the first group of articles in this issue.</p> <p>A second set comprised of two contributions raises questions about the current price regime for oil in international trade. This regime which largely relies on reference prices taken from futures exchanges is almost universally accepted, rather uncritically, as a good market-related price determination system. The authors analyse features of the regime that cast doubt about its ability to provide efficient signals to economic agents involved in the world energy scene.</p> |
