10 Preface Emiko Atimomo's work on 'Law and Diplomacy in Commodity Economics' makes a very useful contribution to the knowledge of some of the most important and most difficult contemporary problems of our times for the following reasons: 1) The application of the New International Economic Order cannot be envisaged without guaranteeing sufficiently stable prices for the raw materials exported by the third world, at a level which would put an end to the worsening terms of trade. Without this stability there could not be any social and economic development. 2) The supply of raw industrial and agricultural materials plays a significant role in the industries of the developed countries as regards their economic growth and their employment policy. That is, 'Commodity diplomacy' is fundamentally important not only for a stable economic growth and equitable distribution but also for the whole North-South relationship and international peace. Emiko Atimomo's work throws light with much pertinence on the diplomatic aspect of great international economic negotiations. These are difficult negotiations because, beyond the essential interests of the third world, the resources of the industrialised countries in raw materials and in food are considerable to the extent that the influence of 'food power' weighs on them. The search for solutions has been rendered so much more difficult that the diversity of raw materials and basic agricultural products implies, besides the diversity of interests, a very great imbalance in diplomatic means on either side. Atimomo has analysed the solutions proposed by the UNO and particularly the UNCTAD. His most important contribution is devoted to the legal analyses of commodity agreements, procedures of ratification, acceptance and approval as well as the chapter on legal provisions which forms the object of interesting developments. Atimomo has devoted the essential aspect of these developments xiii
11 xiv Preface to the analyses of the different markets of raw materials and to legal acts adopted for their stabilisation, and has brought in particularly useful elements of knowledge on the tin market which was a study previously carried out by him long before the present work. He has also included a study of coffee, tea and citrus fruits. Emiko Atimomo concludes by opting for a flexible trade policy which uses subtle legal means adapted both to market realities and to the needs of the third world countries. Let us hope that these means will be the expression of fuller reciprocal interests. If they are it will therefore be necessary to determine their terms so that in a realistic diplomatic negotiation, evolutionary solutions can allow for an economic recovery under satisfactory equitable and stable conditions. This is the condition under which reciprocal interests between producers and consumers will generate social solidarity without which there cannot be a rule of law effectively respected. October 1980 PIERRE VELLAS Professor, Faculty of Law, Toulouse. Director, Institute of International Studies and Developing Countries
12 Acknowledgements This book, which was started in 1968 with case studies and which was only completed in manuscript form in 1979, shall first pay great homage to Professor Pierre Vellas of the University of Toulouse, France. It was under him that I studied International Law and Relations and it was he who eventually supervised my doctorate thesis, 'Nigeria and the International Agreements on Tin', some aspects of which have inspired the format of the section of this book dealing with legal techniques. I wish also to express gratitude to Professors L. Siorat and P. Ourliac, Director of the Institute of Political Sciences of the same University who taught me pure politics, which I have now found useful. I taught International Affairs, Economic Development and Comparative Public Administration while at Ahmadu Bello University and not International Law; so that I did not have the opportunity of making my students participate more actively in the process of my growth in this discipline. Nevertheless, I still owe them a debt of gratitude for their stimulating contributions during our study of the politics and economics of raw materials at tutorials. My unreserved indebtedness goes to Dr H. M. N. Onitiri, Director of the Nigerian Institute of Social and Economic Research, Ibadan, through whose instrumentality I was Adviser to the Ministry of Trade Delegation to the International Cocoa Conference in June 1968 in Geneva. Since then I have participated in subsequent meetings of the Cocoa Producers Alliance and have had several opportunities to participate at UNCT AD meetings and at several African Regional Organisations meetings which dealt with the problems of the Third World countries. My participation at both the European and African meetings has offered me greater insight into the problems of the Third and developed worlds, and a fuller understanding of the dimensions of the discipline of international economic law and diplomacy within the precincts of international economic co-operation. As most of the commodity negotiators, particularly of the developed countries, were regulars, it was easier for me to s.tudy and understand their general approach and thinking. While the consumers looked more offensive in XV
13 xvi Acknowledgements their style and more knowledgeable in the problems under negotiation, the producers only until recently seemed to suffer from a general psychological malaise even when opportunities seemed bright for them to achieve meaningful results. I also owe my experiences to the Economic Community of West African States Institution, where I helped to set up the infrastructural facilities of its secretariat as a member of the Task Force. Further indebtedness is acknowledged to the following persons who have read and criticised my manuscripts at every stage: Mr B. A. Clark, formerly Deputy Permanent Secretary, Ministry of External Affairs, Lagos, Nigerian Ambassador to Switzerland and to the United Nations Organisation in Geneva, Ambassador to Ethiopia and currently Nigeria's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Organisation; Mr Edward Martins, formerly Deputy Director, Africa Division of the Ministry and now Nigeria's Ambassador to Liberia; and Mr I. P. J. Obebe, formerly Deputy Director, International Organisations Division and now Consul-General of Nigeria, San Francisco, USA; Dr G. 0. ljewere, formerly Nigeria's Ambassador to Belgium and at present Director, International Economic Co-operation of the Ministry of External Affairs, Lagos; ChiefS. L. S. Odili-Obi, Principal Secretary, Federal Ministry of Economic Development, who followed my research progress while in the Ministry of Trade since 1968 and Mr Olu Omonira, formerly Lecturer in the Department of Accounting of the Ahmadu Bello University and now General Consultant in Economic Matters in Lagos; Mr Emmanuel Ometan, a legal practitioner of the Supreme Court of Nigeria; and many other academics, too numerous to mention here. I wish also to express gratitude to the following: (1) International organisations which provided me with documents and some of whose officials agreed to talk to me: international councils on tin, wheat, sugar, and coffee; UNCTAD; EEC; CEAO (Economic Community of West Africa, Ouagadougou); African Development Bank, Abidjan; Cocoa Producers Alliance, Lagos; African Groundnut Council with particularly reference to its Deputy Director, Alhaji Gani Issaka; and to Mr P. E. N. Malafa, Director of the United Nations Centre, Lagos. (2) National ministries and research centres in the West African sub-region: Ministries of Justice and Trade, Lagos; Institute of Administration's Zaria Library with particular reference to Mr Ita, its Chief Librarian and a lawyer; Nigerian Institute of Social and Economic Research and the University of Ibadan libraries; the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs Library, with particular reference to Mr A. 0. Banjo
14 Acknowledgements xvii (Chief Librarian) and Mrs R. T. Okotore (Deputy Chief Librarian) who rendered invaluable services to me throughout my years of research. Outside Nigeria were the following ministries and research centres which I visited in my own capacity to find out about ECOW AS: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Cotonou (Republic of Benin); Ministry of Trade Lome (Republic of Togo); Ivorian Centre for Foreign Trade with particular gratitude to Mr Bernard Douayere; Ministry of Foreign Affairs (International Co-operation Division, Abidjan) with particular reference to its Deputy Director, Mr Saidu Bamba; the Ministry of Economic Development, Abidjan ECOW AS/CEAO Division (with particular reference to Mr Tiebri Aka). This acknowledgement cannot be closed without mentioning some very important persons who carried out the secretarial jobs involved. First to Mr C. N. Aribana and Miss Taiwo Bakare, who typed most of the work in their leisure hours without financial reward as their contributions to my solo efforts in financing this project over the years. Finally, to my wife Aderonke, whose patience and resilience saw me through a determined period of over nine months of research fully consecrated to finalising this work, without earning any salary. Lagos, 16 February 1979 E.A.
15 Introduction In the present international systems of relations among states, the negotiation, conclusion and stabilisation of products arising from economic agreements or the establishment of economic regional markets like the EEC, ECOW AS and the East African Common Market and Community are carried out through the application of certain techniques which are not only traditional but also legal and institutional. These techniques involved in the raw material diplomacy, pose the problem of method within the specific discipline of International Economic Law. Also the study of the conflict and cooperation in this vast area of economic transactions must recognise the importance of the political and economic considerations involved, because they are vital to the proper understanding of economic diplomacy. This is to say that the study of international politics in our times will not be complete unless it is approached in an interdisciplinary manner. This factor cannot but motivate the thinking of scholars towards the need for a philosophy of action governing the relations between the rich and the poor nations of the world. This philosophy shall therefore be axed on international concepts already provided by the United Nations Charter but which are flagrantly ignored in international attempts at co-operation. For these reasons we shall first examine international politics within the Charter situation before finding out why traditional diplomacy has failed, in the field of international law, to satisfy the present international diplomatic approach to economic transactions. How this diplomacy is conducted within the precincts oflaw, politics and economics, and the techniques used in its conduct, will preoccupy our minds in a theoretical area. Hereafter we shall study the conflict and.co-operation situations of commodity diplomacy within the United Nations and quasi-united Nations systems. xix
