Africa and the oil crisis: Background of the conflict

Abstract

The energy crisis has hit the Third World countries, which can least afford high prices for energy and petrochemicals, much more harshly than the developed countries. The following article by His Excellency S.O. Hashim, Ambassador of the Republic of Sudan in France, is a passionate voice from a Third World country calling for better cooperation between the affluent countries and the developing countries. Planning Review is indebted to the Society for International Development in Washington, D.C., for providing the text of Ambassador Hashim's speech, which we publish with minor editorial changes.
