Summary:

The book is a compilation of proceedings from a conference held by the Association for Social Policy in Mannheim in 1979, focusing on the topic of exhaustible resources. It explores the future scarcity of natural resources, intergenerational resource management, and market roles in resource allocation. The discussions aim to address the implications for resource usage, efficiency, and equity between generations, and the role of taxation and market interventions. The conference brought together economists and practitioners to stimulate research and discuss theoretical and practical challenges in resource economics, particularly in the context of the oil crisis of the 1970s.
