About this product

Product Information

From the oilfields of Saudi Arabia to the Nile delta, from the shipping lanes of the South China Sea to the pipelines of Central Asia,Resource Warslooks at the growing impact of resource scarcity on the military policies of nations. International security expert Michael T. Klare argues that in the early decades of the new millennium, wars will be fought not over ideology but over access to dwindling supplies of precious natural commodities. The political divisions of the Cold War, Klare asserts, have given way to a global scramble for oil, natural gas, minerals, and water. And as armies throughout the world define resource security as a primary objective, widespread instability is bound to follow, especially in those areas where competition for essential materials overlaps with long-standing territorial and religious disputes. In this clarifying view, the recent explosive conflict between the United States and Islamic extremism stands revealed as the predictable consequence of consumer nations seeking to protect the vital resources they depend on. A much-needed assessment of a changed world,Resource Warsis a compelling look at warfare in an era of rampant globalization and intense economic competition.

    Resource Wars by Michael T. Klare 2002

    This is a great book to have. It is loaded with information about resources and has maps. I love maps! I highly recommend it to anyone interested in what is going on in the world. I recommend Crude Politics to go with it, and books by Lester R. Brown, The Twenty-Ninth Day, and Plan B 2.0 a plan to rescue the planet. Great reading.
