An unprecedented description of the critical energy situation
throughout Asia, this book examines the energy resources, naval
forces, and national strategies of the nations of that vast
landmass, set against the priorities and resources of the United
States. Energy security in Asia is crucial to the continued
economic growth and hence the national security of the region's
nations. Providing such security requires a combination of naval,
political, and economic policies. Despite dramatic news coverage to
the contrary, Cole's research reveals that the nations of the
region-of which the United States must be counted-are in fact
acting more together than apart in striving to ensure the security
of scarce energy resources they all require. No issue in today's
international environment is more important than energy security.
Even the North Korean nuclear development program must be taken as
a subset of this subject. As the United States, the United Kingdom,
and other nations have done in past decades, the People's Republic
of China is striving to establish proprietorship of energy
resources throughout their lifecycle, from recovery from the ground
to sale in the market place. This important book demonstrates the
vacuity of that paradigm, illustrating the multilateral nature of
energy security.
