89. Interdisciplinary Connection 1 Economics OPEC showed its economic might when it raised the price of oil from $2 per barrel in 1973 to almost 20 times that by 1981. To buy oil, the poorer countries of the world had to borrow great sums at high interest rates.

90. FYI 1 Caspian Sea In the early 1980s when the Soviet Union controlled fishing in the Caspian Sea, sturgeon catches averaged 20,000 to 26,000 tons per year. Today, because of overfishing, the official catch for all Caspian Sea countries totals only about 3,000 tons.
