Abstract
The permanence of regional trading blocs is primarily influenced by the relative costs and benefits of membership. Whilst these are complex and wide ranging, such effects are unlikely to be captured by financial contributions to regional budgets. Budgetary contribution to the EEC is discussed, but the analysis inevitably leads to a balance of trade approach to membership. Whilst econometric exercises to locate the source and extent of balance of payments deficits and surpluses have produced some disaggregated estimates, a variety of sources are used to extend the direct cost concept of UK membership of the EEC.

Abstract
In the last four years, since Volume I of this Bibliography first appeared, there has been an explosion of literature in all the main functional areas of business. This wealth of material poses problems for the researcher in management studies — and, of course, for the librarian: uncovering what has been written in any one area is not an easy task. This volume aims to help the librarian and the researcher overcome some of the immediate problems of identification of material. It is an annotated bibliography of management, drawing on the wide variety of literature produced by MCB University Press. Over the last four years, MCB University Press has produced an extensive range of books and serial publications covering most of the established and many of the developing areas of management. This volume, in conjunction with Volume I, provides a guide to all the material published so far.
