FORTHCOMING - Pipeline Politics: The Caspian and Global Energy Security

May 2009

The landlocked Caspian states - Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan - lie at the heart of the 21st century's great energy dilemma: how to satisfy the industrialized world's huge appetite while slaking the tremendous thirst of the new industrial giants China, India and Russia. Multi-billion-dollar pipelines are being built, planned, or expanded to carry Caspian oil and gas to all these markets. This book sets the ongoing saga of Caspian pipeline politics against the background of global energy security.
