Regions, Power, and Conflict
Racing to the Top
Over the past two millennia, one state has tended to lead as the foremost producer of energy and new technology. While it has not been fully recognized, these leads have become increasingly reliant on energy transitions that make new technological innovations relatively inexpensive. Since the edge of the incumbent system leader (the United States) appears to be eroding, the question is what might come next. As carbon-based fuels become scarcer an…
China
China’s technological precocity in iron manufacturing, transportation, maritime shipping and navigation, weaponry, market commercialization, and agriculture cannot be denied. Nor can it be denied that European industrialization borrowed extensively from Chinese practice. The problem, however, is that there was no energy revolution in China prior to the mid-nineteenth century, at which point Britain had outpaced China. The Chinese use of coal, pet…
Rome as the Pinnacle of the Western Ancient World
Ancient Rome is an important turning point in Eurasian history. But it is also an interesting test case in its own right. In the past, the standard view was that ancient economies operated on a subsistence production basis and lacked technological innovation, and that therefore, economic growth in the modern sense was highly unlikely. Yet we have the sense that Rome was wealthy. Was this wealth simply another example of the efflorescence that has…

To examine the extent to which water has shaped the structure of Central Asian relations, I use water-related events. The empirical findings suggest that international relations of the Central…
