Book excerpt: This thesis treats four major themes of vital importance to contemporary politics and strategy in the Caspian Sea region. In the first instance, it explores the growing geo-strategic role of the littoral states. Secondly, it treats the Caspian littoral as an issue of the strategic partnership between Turkey and the United States with due attention to the interaction of domestic and external politics as is plainly visible in all considerations of the Caspian littoral. In the third instance, this thesis analyzes the sources of political instability in the Caspian Sea Basin seen through the lenses of Turkish and U.S. policies. And finally, the thesis evaluates the effects of new developments on regional and global political concerns. This thesis demonstrates that Turkey and the United States have similar interests in the region. But these allies' policies in the last decade could neither conclude the construction of a main oil pipeline from Azerbaijan nor solve the inherent problems of the littoral states. Furthermore, domestic and other international issues hinder the implementation of their policies. Considering these new developments, Turkish and U.S. policy makers must adopt a new outlook. Being stakeholders in these events requires them to revise their policies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Navigating the Caspian Sea" offers an illuminating journey into the geopolitics, economics, and history of one of the world's most significant, yet often overlooked, inland bodies of water. As the largest enclosed inland body of water by area, the Caspian Sea has long served as a nexus of both cooperation and contention among the littoral states that border it. Key elements explored in the book include: Historical Overview: An examination of the Caspian's role as a critical trade route and strategic prize from ancient to modern times. Energy Riches: Insight into the vast reserves of oil and natural gas beneath the seabed, and how these resources have shaped the economic and political objectives of bordering nations. Geopolitical Implications: Analysis of the sea's strategic location, serving as a bridge between Europe and Asia and as a hotspot for regional power plays, especially concerning Russia, Iran, and the Central Asian republics. Legal Status and Disputes: A thorough exploration of the longstanding debates surrounding whether the Caspian is a sea or a lake, and the implications of this designation for territorial claims, resource extraction, and environmental protection. Environmental Concerns: Addressing the pressing issues of pollution, overfishing, and ecological degradation that threaten the health of the Caspian and its surrounding ecosystems. Regional Cooperation and Tensions: A dive into the delicate balance of national interests, from military posturing to economic partnerships, highlighting the complexities of multilateral collaboration. Future Prospects: Projections about the evolving role of the Caspian in global energy markets, geopolitical dynamics, and sustainable development efforts. By weaving together the multifaceted narratives of history, economics, politics, and environmental science, "Navigating the Caspian Sea" provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of this pivotal region. It's an essential read for diplomats, scholars, energy industry professionals, and anyone keen on grasping the intricacies of a sea that continues to shape the destinies of adjacent nations and beyond.

Book excerpt: "Now in paperback, Rising Powers, Shrinking Planet surveys the energy driven dynamic that is reconfiguring the international landscape: Russia, the battered Cold War loser, is now the arrogant broker of Eurasian energy, and the United States, once the world's superpower, must now compete with the emerging "chindia" juggernaut for finite resources. Forecasting a future of surprising new alliances and explosive danger, Klare, the preeminent expert on resource geopolitics, argues that the only route to surival in our radically altered world lies through international cooperation"--Book cover

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The opening of the Caspian Sea basin to Western investment following the breakup of the Soviet Union produced a major contest for access to the region's vast energy reserves on the part of powers as close as Russia, Turkey, and Iran, and as far away as Japan and the United States. Indeed, the struggle to exploit Caspian oil has been one of the most monumental geopolitical developments of the post-Cold War era as external powers vie for political, economic, and military influence in a region brimming not only with oil, but also with ethnic conflicts and historical animosities. The coming decade of rapidly increasing demand for energy will ensure the continued interest and engagement of external powers with often competing geopolitical agendas. Thus the geopolitical developments spawned by the opening of the Caspian Sea are likely to continue to far outweigh the actual impact of Caspian oil on world energy markets. This collection of essays by prominent scholars and international experts offers several important and often conflicting interpretations of the events unfolding along the shores of the world's oldest oil-producing region.
