Abstract
In outlining the prospects for East-West economic relations in the 1990s it is necessary to begin with an appraisal of the general political climate. This is important because the new emerging forms of economic cooperation are more complicated than traditional forms of simple commodity exchange and require a far more favourable political and security climate. Their expansion demands a higher degree of trust, mutual accountability in behaviour, and stability in political relations.
