Martin Chick's book is a major economic and historical study of the
development of electricity and energy policy in Britain, France and
the United States since 1945. Using newly available archival
material the author draws important comparisons between these
countries and includes all of the fuel and power industries. Among
the issues covered within this book are: nationalisation and
privatisation; regulation, deregulation and liberalisation;
marginal cost pricing; investment appraisal; the OPEC oil price
hikes of the 1970s; the European Coal and Steel Community; domestic
and international threats to national energy security; the
electricity blackouts in California; the efforts of the European
Commission to promote competition in national and transnational
electricity markets; and the influence of history on current
discussions of energy policy. The book blends economic theory with
historical evidence and is as interested in the political factors
affecting the implementation of theory as in the theory itself. It
will be of interest to all students and scholars of environmental
studies, politics, economics, business and industrial history, as
well as to anyone interested in placing the current debates on
electricity and energy policy in their historical perspective
