With the oversupply of oil on world markets and the fall in international oil prices from $32-41 per barrel in 1980 to mid-1989 levels of $15-20 per barrel, the international energy crisis that followed the 1973 Arab-Israeli war appears to have passed. The world has shifted from devising strategies of crisis management to strategies-albeit rapidly fading-for avoiding similar crises in the future. Such were the lessons learned from the sustained energy crisis of the 1970s, which severely affected both the industrialized and developing countries for almost a decade.
