The authors contend that the actions of the Dutch government were hypocritical: the Dutch government faced a domestic crisis when an oil embargo was levied against them by Arab countries for selling arms to Israel; yet after oil began arriving again two months later, the Dutch rejected a proposal for a stricter interventionist energy policy within the European Union. A probing and thought-provoking study, The Netherlands and the Oil Crisis draws on previously unavailable archival sources to shed new light on a pivotal moment in contemporary Dutch history.Amsterdam Archaeological StudiesPetroleum industry and tradeNetherlandsEnergy policyNetherlandsWorld politicsHistory20th centuryPetroleum industry and tradeEnergy policyWorld politicsHistory338.2728209492Hellema Duco925385Wiebes Cees997822Witte Gerardus Tobias1955-997823Pearson Murray997824MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910144119403321The Netherlands and the oil crisis2288447UNINA
