Conservation and the Changing Direction of Economic Growth
Westview Special Studies in Natural Resources and Energy Management
Conservation and the Changing Direction of Economic Growth
edited by Bernhard J. Abrahamsson
The problem of energy resource scarcity is more related to financial and national security issues than to the availability of energy raw materials. This conclusion emerged from the June 1977 meeting of the Rocky Mountain Energy Economics Institute, which focused on the implications of the energy crisis for conservation and future economic growth in the U.S. This volume, based on six papers prepared for the June meeting, presents the view that, if flexibility of resource allocation is maintained, economic growth is not likely to come to a haltat least not in the Western world. Conservation can achieve substantial energy savings, but conservation alone cannot solve the problem. Additional domestic supplies are needed, and coal is considered by many to be the main alternate domestic energy resource. These issues pose crucial questions for future policy vis--vis both economics and the environment.
Bernhard J. Abrahamsson is professor of international economic relations at the Graduate School of International Studies and senior research economist at the Denver Research Institute (DRI), both at the University of Denver. Dr. Abrahamsson is presently involved in research on U.S. natural gas consumption in his capacity as director of the Gas Requirements Agency of DRI. His writings have been published in several journals and he recently edited The Changing Economics of World Energy (Westview Press).

Preface
The chapters in this book were originally given as discussion papers at the 1977 Rocky Mountain Energy Economics Institute, sponsored by the Rocky Mountain Oil and Gas Association. The institute met in Aspen, Colorado, from June 26 to June 29, and, as in previous years, the program was planned and organized by Mr. Bob Burch, who also served as the moderator throughout the proceedings. Before publication in this volume, most papers were substantially revised.
The institute began as the Rocky Mountain Petroleum Economics Institute in 1963 at Mr. Burchs initiative. While the original intention was to schedule future institutes biennially, more frequent conferences have been held in response to needs and interest, and 1977 marks the tenth such meeting. Each institute has been planned, organized, and implemented by Mr. Burch; but from the very beginning, a regional academic institution has been invited to cosponsor the event and to publish the proceedings. The University of Denver, through the Denver Research Institute, has performed this function since 1971.
The institute brings together individuals from the energy industries, government, and academic circles. The group is intentionally kept small so that active participation is encouraged and so that each can benefit from the available individual expertise and accumulated experience. Formal papers are presented to express diverse perspectives and views and to stimulate discussion. No transcript is kept of the discussions, but the formal papers are published and made available to the public after the conference.
We wish to thank Helen Kneeland of the Rocky Mountain Oil and Gas Association and Lynne Roll of the Industrial Economics Division of the Denver Research Institute at the University of Denver for their assistance in the preparation of this work for publication.
