The International Community and International Oil

Abstract

The Group of Thirty was established in late 1978 with the support of the Rockefeller Foundation in order to test the proposition that a group of distinguished public and private leaders in the fields of commerce and international finance, gathered from all over the world, meeting regularly, could bring fresh insight to public understanding of the powerful forces bedeviling the world economy. The Group has since established itself as an important force in world economic affairs and the Rockefeller Foundation has continued to support it.
