The idea that energy shapes and is shaped by geopolitics is firmly
rooted in the popular imagination - and not without reason. Very
few countries have the means to secure their energy needs through
locally available supplies; instead, enduring dependencies upon
other countries have developed. Given energy's strategic
significance, supply systems for fuels and electricity are now
seamlessly interwoven with foreign policy and global politics.
Energy and Geopolitics enables students to enhance their
understanding and sharpen their analytical skills with respect to
the complex relations between energy supply, energy markets and
international politics. Per Hoegselius guides us through the
complexities of world energy and international energy relations,
examining a wide spectrum of fossil fuels, alongside nuclear and
renewable energies. Uniquely, the book also shows how the
geopolitics of energy is not merely a matter for the great powers
and reveals how actors in the world's smaller nations are as active
in their quest for power and control. Encouraging students to apply
a number of central concepts and theoretical ideas to different
energy sources within a multitude of geographical, political and
historical contexts, this book will be a vital resource to students
and scholars of geopolitics, energy security and international
environmental policy and politics.
