Book excerpt: South Africa is almost entirely dependent on imports to fulfill its petroleum needs. The author discusses the international ban on exporting petroleum to South Africa and how this ban is mostly a fiction for purposes of public relations. Governments, oil companies, and shipping lines publicly condemn apartheid and endorse the oil embargo, while clandestinely selling oil to South Africa. A study of international hypocrisy.
