Abstract

International economic interrelations have come increasingly into the foreground as internationally linked economic instability has mounted since the early 1970s, as a result of broad movements in prices of fuels and other commodities. It is fortunate that economists are also increasingly better able to handle global econometric systems and to integrate commodity price impacts into these models. In this paper we ask how far econometric approaches have been developed to deal with commodities in international economic linkages.
