The majority of developing countries in the Global South are
evidently rich in natural resources, but paradoxically blighted by
excruciating poverty and conflicts. This paradox of deprivation and
war in the midst of plenteous resources has been the subject of
great debate in international political economy in contemporary
history. This book contributes to the debate by examining the
underlying structures, actors and contexts of rentier politics and
how they often produce and aggravate conflicts in the various
extractive economies and regions of the Global South. The book
critically explores the theories of rentier economies and natural
resource conflicts, as well as the practical ramifications of
rentier politics in the Global South with all their resonance for
political economy and security in the Global North.
