Book Synopsis Oil and Gas in the Caucasus & Caspian by : Charles van der Leeuw
Book excerpt: The impact of oil and oil-related interests on economic, social and political conditions and development for the next century holds implications that reach from the Caspian heartland to the world's most distant shores. This book is the first attempt to present an exhaustive overview of the origins and development of the Caucaso-Caspian oil and gas industry. The commercial role of oil in the light of world market developments is related to its political value in the eyes of local Azerbaijani, Turkmen, Kazakh powerbrokers as well as their Russian, Turkish, European and American counterparts.
