 The Economic Decline of the West Guns, Oil and Oligarchs【電子書籍】[ Wim Naud? ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book argues that the West is in economic decline due to three interrelated factors, described as the ＜em＞Guns-Oil-Oligarchy＜/em＞ nexus. It explains how the rise of the West as the world's current hegemon has resulted in an ecological overshoot, the rise of neoliberalism and its slash-and-burn model of continuous growth, extraction, expansion and conquest. With this model pushing against planetary boundaries, threatening ecological disaster, and depleting many resources the ＜em＞Guns-Oil-Oligarchy＜/em＞ nexus has deepened its stranglehold on society. This book then dissects the ＜em＞Guns-Oil-Oligarchy＜/em＞ nexus. First it describes who the ＜em＞Oligarch＜/em＞s are and how they expand and consolidate their power and influence, and stifle innovation, undermine democracy, hinder responses to climate change, and contribute to militarization and conflict. Secondly, the book explains how ＜em＞Oil＜/em＞ has been essential for the economic rise of the West and how it will feature in its decline. Third, the book identifies the rise and influence of the West's ＜em＞Military-Industrial Complex＜/em＞ (MIC) as contributing to the West's economic decline. It is shown that the MIC constitutes an oligarchy and, like all oligarchies, uses lobbying, campaign contributions, and control of the mainstream media to expand and consolidate power. Silicon Valley's integration into the MIC is also examined, driven by the search for new profit opportunities as traditional markets become saturated.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book shows why the ＜em＞Guns?Oil?Oligarchy＜/em＞ nexus is a simple explanation for the West's economic decline, and how its understanding offers a simple solution to avert further economic decline: the oligarchs' grip must be broken.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 14,585円 |
 Front End Engineering Design of Oil and Gas Projects: Critical Factors for Project Success Perspectives, Case Studies, and Lessons【電子書籍】[ G. Unnikrishnan ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Quite a large number of major oil and gas projects are failures with respect to their costs, schedules, and operational performance. Owner companies and contractors are struggling with the issues causing these failures. The Front End Engineering Design (FEED) has been identified as an important factor that plays a key role in determining the success of a project. However, the FEED and the associated Front End Loading (FEL) do not get the attention they deserve from the players in the business, namely, the owner companies, FEED, and EPC contractors. While academic studies on the FEL and its failures are available, how the seeds of failures are sown during an actual project FEED remains a mystery. The details are usually buried in the rubbished computers and hundreds of files that are shelved in companies' offices.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this unique book, two experienced professionals, one from an owner company and the other from an international EPC contractor, whose interests often oppose each other, join to give their perspectives about the project lifecycle, its governance structure, gate system, complexities, contract models, and quality measurements.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the second part of the book, they present case studies of projects gone wrong, due to mismatches, errors, and inconsistencies in the FEED. These case histories reveal how avoidable gaps and errors creep into FEED resulting in project failures and how the review systems fail to detect them. Technical and business professionals seem to underestimate the importance of FEED in capital-intensive major projects, while focusing on short-term goals. The underlying causal factors need to be addressed and resolved in time properly, for ensuring success of major oil and gas projects.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Written in a concise and practical style, with key takeaways at the end of each chapter, this book will be a useful guide for practicing project and engineering professionals in the oil and gas industry. Senior students and researchers will find ideas and viewpoints given in this book worth exploring further.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 11,109円 |

 Oil and the political economy in the Middle East Post-2014 adjustment policies of the Arab Gulf and beyond【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The downhill slide in the global price of crude oil, which started mid-2014, had major repercussions across the Middle East for net oil exporters, as well as importers closely connected to the oil-producing countries from the Gulf. Following the Arab uprisings of 2010 and 2011, the oil price decline represented a second major shock for the region in the early twenty-first century ? one that has continued to impose constraints, but also provided opportunities. Offering the first comprehensive analysis of the Middle Eastern political economy in response to the 2014 oil price decline, this book connects oil market dynamics with an understanding of socio-political changes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Inspired by rentierism, the contributors present original studies on Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. The studies reveal a large diversity of country-specific policy adjustment strategies: from the migrant workers in the Arab Gulf, who lost out in the post-2014 period but were incapable of repelling burdensome adjustment policies, to Egypt, Jordan, and Lebanon, who have never been able to fulfil the expectation that they could benefit from the 2014 oil price decline.＜/p＞ ＜p＞With timely contributions on the COVID-19-induced oil price crash in 2020, this collection signifies that rentierism still prevails with regard to both empirical dynamics in the Middle East and academic discussions on its political economy.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 17,246円 |

 Desert Kingdom How Oil and Water Forged Modern Saudi Arabia【電子書籍】[ Toby Craig Jones ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Oil and water, and the science and technology used to harness them, have long been at the heart of political authority in Saudi Arabia. Oil’s abundance, and the fantastic wealth it generated, has been a keystone in the political primacy of the kingdom’s ruling family. The other bedrock element was water, whose importance was measured by its dearth. Over much of the twentieth century, it was through efforts to control and manage oil and water that the modern state of Saudi Arabia emerged.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The central government’s power over water, space, and people expanded steadily over time, enabled by increasing oil revenues. The operations of the Arabian American Oil Company proved critical to expansion and to achieving power over the environment. Political authority in Saudi Arabia took shape through global networks of oil, science, and expertise. And, where oil and water were central to the forging of Saudi authoritarianism, they were also instrumental in shaping politics on the ground. Nowhere was the impact more profound than in the oil-rich Eastern Province, where the politics of oil and water led to a yearning for national belonging and to calls for revolution.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Saudi Arabia is traditionally viewed through the lenses of Islam, tribe, and the economics of oil. ＜em＞Desert Kingdom＜/em＞ now provides an alternative history of environmental power and the making of the modern Saudi state. It demonstrates how vital the exploitation of nature and the roles of science and global experts were to the consolidation of political authority in the desert.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 6,965円 |

 Oil and Development in Ghana Beyond the Resource Curse【電子書籍】[ Nathan Andrews ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book gives a comprehensive overview of Ghana’s hydrocarbon economy using actor network and assemblage theories to contest the methodological nationalism of mainstream accounts of the resource curse in resource-rich countries.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Drawing upon recent field research focused on Ghana’s oil and gas sector and utilizing the theoretical framework of actor network theory, the authors contend that there is an assemblage of political, economic, social and environmental networks, processes, actions, actors, and structures of power that coalesce to determine the extent to which the country’s hydrocarbon resources could be regarded as a "curse" or "blessing." This framing facilitates a better understanding of the variety (and duality) of local and global forces and power structures at play in Ghana’s growing hydrocarbon industry.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Giving a nuanced and multi-perspectival analysis of the factors that underlie oil-engendered development in Ghana, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of African political economy, development and the politics of resource extraction.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 9,948円 |

 The Economics of Oil and Gas【電子書籍】[ Dr. Xiaoyi Mu ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The availability of low-cost energy from fossil fuels ? in particular oil ? has been the driving force behind postwar global economic growth, such that the petroleum industry has some of the world’s largest companies. This book examines the economics of the oil and gas industry, from exploration, development and production, to transportation, refining and marketing. At each stage of the value chain, the key economic costs and considerations are presented in order to provide the reader with a comprehensive understanding of the workings of the industry.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The book examines some of the unique economic challenges the industry faces, including negotiating international contracts with host countries (to gain access to hydrocarbons), managing the risks of recovery, implementing cross-border pipelines, dealing with huge variations in the taxation of refined products, and reacting to the effect of price control and subsidization in the OPEC nations which can create massive volatility in pricing. The search for low-carbon fuels, the impact of shale gas, the prospect of finite reserves, and the global political realities of the competing demands of oil-importing and oil-exporting countries are shown to make the sector high risk, but the economic rewards can be huge.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 4,934円 |
 Oil and the International Economy【電子書籍】[ Georg Koopmann ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The oil price increases of the 1970s left deep marks on the world economy. They led to a massive redistribution of income in favor of oil-producing countries, and caused serious disruption of growth, imbalances in foreign trade, and problems of stability in oil-importing countries. Despite the present levelling off, the authors suggest that more price increases remain a distinct possibility.Oil and the International Economy examines the effects of rising oil prices on the international financial system and identifies ways that oil-importing countries can overcome the financial and adjustment problems caused by them. The authors project the long-term trend in real oil prices and present economic policy options to help avoid future financial problems for industrialized and developing nations alike.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 6,632円 |

 Cold War Energy A Transnational History of Soviet Oil and Gas【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book examines the role of Soviet energy during the Cold War. Based on hitherto little known documents from Western and Eastern European archives, it combines the story of Soviet oil and gas with general Cold War history.

This book challenges some of the long-standing assumptions of East-West bloc relations, as well as shedding new light on relations within the blocs regarding the issue of energy. By bringing together a range of junior and senior historians and specialists from Europe, Russia and the US, this book represents a pioneering endeavour to approach the role of Soviet energy during the Cold War in transnational perspective.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 15,800円 |
 Shifting Political Economy of Russian Oil and Gas【電子書籍】[ Tatiana Mitrova ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Russia is one of the world’s largest hydrocarbon resource holders, producers, and exporters, but it is undergoing an uncertain economic and energy transition. An economic slowdown, the dual shocks of a sharp decline in oil prices and the imposition of finance and technology-oriented sanctions, shifting markets for Russia’s exports, and internal economic and political dynamics are spurring dramatic changes in Russia’s domestic and international oil and gas strategies. These changes, while not predetermined, will impact geopolitics, energy security, oil and gas investment, and global hydrocarbon market dynamics in the near to medium term. Given the sheer size of Russia’s hydrocarbon production, the importance of oil and gas revenue to the health of Russia’s economy, and Russia’s role as an exporter and provider of hydrocarbon infrastructure, this study fills a crucial gap by analyzing the evolution of Russia’s oil and gas sector and its anticipated realignment.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 5,537円 |
