Ensuring Energy Security
On the eve of World War I, First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill made a historic decision: to shift the power source of the British navy’s ships from coal to oil. He intended to make the fleet faster than its German counterpart. But the switch also meant that the Royal Navy would rely not on coal from Wales but on insecure oil supplies from what was then Persia. Energy security thus became a question of national strategy. Churchill’s answ…
The Next Prize
The emerging global market in natural gas has the potential to meet rising demand for electricity worldwide. The United States' own gas supplies are dwindling, but elsewhere vast, unexploited resources are becoming ever more accessible now that gas can be liquefied, shipped, and used efficiently. New energy linkages will create new risks, but none that cannot be managed through proper diversification
The commanding heights
A look at the shift of assets from central governments to private enterprise in Europe, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East analyzes how such changes as deregulation and privatization will affect economic power in the world.
The Ultimate Lagging Indicator
Fueling Asia's Recovery
The financial contagion sweeping through Asia is forcing a re assessment of the continent's future, including assumptions about energy?the lifeblood of economics and a critical factor in the geopol itics of the region. In recent decades, Asia's rapid economic growth has meant even more rapid increases in the consumption of energy. A failure to satisfy its enormous needs, it was thought, would undermine the Asian economic miracle. But now that mir…

American Hegemony and World Oil
Oil
Twenty years after it burst into international politics with the 1973 crisis, oil remains a strategic commodity critical in the global bal ance of power. But, looking toward the 21st century, the perspective has changed radically since those days when it seemed that oil pow er would engulf world politics. Today, economics is taking precedence over politics. Many export ing countries court the international oil companies that they once shunned. Th…

Soviet Natural Resources in the World Economy
Russia is a huge storehouse of natural resources, including oil, gas, and other energy sources, which she can trade with the rest of the world for advanced technology and wheat. In this book, leading experts evaluate the Soviet potential in major energy and industrial raw materials, giving special attention to implications for the world economy to the end of the twentieth century. The authors examine the mineral and forest resources that the Sovi…
Global Insecurity, a Strategy for Energy and Economic Renewal
This is not a book about energy itself, but about the economic, social, and political consequences of the energy problem. The authors and editors look not only to the recent past, but also to the future in order to ask how these consequences might be felt in the rest of the 1980s and the 1990s. Their aim is not to offer specific forecasts, but rather to provide a framework for understanding the challenges and choices that the people of the world …

Energy
This article reviews the story of oil price increases and their proximate causes during the years 1974-1979. The social and political consequences of rapid development in the OPEC countries during these years pushed these nations to reevaluate their development plans and hence their need for revenue. The influence of politics on the oil-price increases is discussed in relation to the two largest producers of oil - Saudi Arabia and Iran. In the la…
