Caspian Energy Politics analyses the role of oil and gas in the
development of the three main petroleum exporters in the Caspian
region - Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan - and how energy
resources influence interactions with semi-authoritarian Russia and
China. Due to volatile commodity prices and competition for the
resources in and around the Caspian Sea, the governments of these
petroleum-exporters face a series of difficult decisions. These
governments have sought to balance short-term incentives to spend
oil revenues as a means to maintain power against the need for a
long-term strategy for managing these assets, choices which have
further implications for how these countries align themselves
internationally. By illuminating important linkages between
domestic and international dynamics in these states, the book
provides a fresh perspective on energy politics and the impact of
petroleum on the development of the Caspian petroleum producers.
Expert contributors from Central Asia and the South Caucasus and
international scholars provide context-specific insights into the
incentives affecting decision-makers that can provide a foundation
for strategies to help the countries in the region overcome the
negative effects of reliance on oil and gas. As such, the book will
be a valuable tool for business actors seeking to understand the
role of Chinese and Russian companies in the region, as well as
local and international policymakers and non-governmental
organisations.
