Abstract
The major macroeconomic goals of the Latin American countries relate to: (1) growth, (2) distribution, (3) short-run stability regarding employment, inflation and the balance-of-payments position, and (4) the International situation. Latin American analysts and policy-makers have king been preoccupied about the impact on the attainment of these goals of fluctuations and trends in international non-fuel primary commodity markets. It is not surprising, therefore, that Latin Americans have given considerable (although not unanimous) support to the call for the revision of conditions in international non-fuel primary markets that is the foremost demand of the developing countries in their quest for a “New International Economic Older”.
