Description: "This is the first major study of the alternatives confronting Iraq as it seeks to rebuild its vital while simultaneously constructing a new political system. A key challenge facing the country is to allocate the revenues oil generates in a way that avoids economic and social instability. Reviewing the present status of the industry, the authors use comparative analysis to suggest how it might best be rebuilt."--Jacket.
