Download or read book P trole une guerre d un si cle written by William Engdahl and published by Jean-Cyrille Godefroy Editions. This book was released on 2007 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage remet radicalement en cause l'idée que l'on se fait communément de la politique internationale et de ses enjeux. Il décrit les moyens extrêmes que les Anglo-Américains sont prêts à mettre en œuvre pour conserver une suprématie née en 1815 et renforcée au prix des deux Guerres mondiales. Nous savons, depuis l'élection de George W. Bush, que la politique américaine et le pétrole entretiennent une relation intime. William Engdahl montre que l'économie des Etats-Unis repose sur un approvisionnement en pétrole bon marché illimité, et sur la suprématie du dollar sur les autres monnaies. Vous découvrirez comment le premier choc pétrolier fut une incroyable et cynique manipulation conçue par Henry Kissinger pour opérer un transfert planétaire de capitaux vers les banques de Londres et de New York, au prix de la ruine des pays du Tiers-monde ; comment ces pays en faillite, contraints de s'endetter auprès du FMI, se virent prêter à grands frais ces mêmes capitaux dont ils avaient été auparavant spoliés. Vous verrez comment la géopolitique du pétrole est à l'origine de l'effondrement de l'Union soviétique, de l'éclatement de la Yougoslavie, et de l'arrivée au pouvoir puis de la chute des Talibans. Vous serez surpris d'apprendre comment, dans les années 1970, les mouvements écologistes anti-nucléaires financés par les grandes compagnies pétrolières, devinrent le cheval de bataille visant à entraver l'indépendance que l'énergie nucléaire aurait pu procurer à nombre d'Etats, afin de les maintenir dans l'orbite des pétroliers. Vous comprendrez enfin que la décision d'envahir l'Irak fut prise pour assurer l'hégémonie de la puissance anglo-américaine et le contrôle de l'économie mondiale pour les 50 ans à venir.

Download or read book The Oil Wars Myth written by Emily Meierding and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do countries fight wars for oil? Given the resource's exceptional military and economic importance, most people assume that states will do anything to obtain it. Challenging this conventional wisdom, The Oil Wars Myth reveals that countries do not launch major conflicts to acquire petroleum resources. Emily Meierding argues that the costs of foreign invasion, territorial occupation, international retaliation, and damage to oil company relations deter even the most powerful countries from initiating "classic oil wars." Examining a century of interstate violence, she demonstrates that, at most, countries have engaged in mild sparring to advance their petroleum ambitions. The Oil Wars Myth elaborates on these findings by reassessing the presumed oil motives for many of the twentieth century's most prominent international conflicts: World War II, the two American Gulf wars, the Iran–Iraq War, the Falklands/Malvinas War, and the Chaco War. These case studies show that countries have consistently refrained from fighting for oil. Meierding also explains why oil war assumptions are so common, despite the lack of supporting evidence. Since classic oil wars exist at the intersection of need and greed—two popular explanations for resource grabs—they are unusually easy to believe in. The Oil Wars Myth will engage and inform anyone interested in oil, war, and the narratives that connect them.
Download or read book Oil Exploration Diplomacy and Security in the Early Cold War written by Roberto Cantoni and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-03-27 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of oil for national military-industrial complexes appeared more clearly than ever in the Cold War. This volume argues that the confidential acquisition of geoscientific knowledge was paramount for states, not only to provide for their own energy needs, but also to buttress national economic and geostrategic interests and protect energy security. By investigating the postwar rebuilding and expansion of French and Italian oil industries from the second half of the 1940s to the early 1960s, this book shows how successive administrations in those countries devised strategies of oil exploration and transport, aiming at achieving a higher degree of energy autonomy and setting up powerful oil agencies that could implement those strategies. However, both within and outside their national territories, these two European countries had to confront the new Cold War balances and the interests of the two superpowers.
Download or read book A history of romanian oil vol I written by Gh. Buzatu and published by Elefant Online. This book was released on 2016-02-16 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work represents a synthesis published and printed in two volumes (the 1st volume in 2002, the second one, in 2004) under the aegis of Mica Valahie Publishing House in Bucharest. Being elaborated on the basis of some documents discovered in the Romanian and foreign archives, the two volumes cover the period up to 1929 in the first volume and the period from 1929 to 2005 in the second one. The paper reveals the role and place of Romanian oil in the evolution of the national and worldwide history, especially during the World War between 1939 and 1945 and in the development of the so-called “cold war”. The book insists upon the prospects of the specific “black gold” evolution.In the addendum there are to be found some interesting documents and the complete bibliography of oil.

Download or read book Napalm written by Robert M. Neer and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Napalm, incendiary gel that sticks to skin and burns to the bone, came into the world on Valentine’s Day 1942 at a secret Harvard war research laboratory. On March 9, 1945, it created an inferno that killed over 87,500 people in Tokyo—more than died in the atomic explosions at Hiroshima or Nagasaki. It went on to incinerate sixty-four of Japan’s largest cities. The Bomb got the press, but napalm did the work. After World War II, the incendiary held the line against communism in Greece and Korea—Napalm Day led the 1950 counter-attack from Inchon—and fought elsewhere under many flags. Americans generally applauded, until the Vietnam War. Today, napalm lives on as a pariah: a symbol of American cruelty and the misguided use of power, according to anti-war protesters in the 1960s and popular culture from Apocalypse Now to the punk band Napalm Death and British street artist Banksy. Its use by Serbia in 1994 and by the United States in Iraq in 2003 drew condemnation. United Nations delegates judged deployment against concentrations of civilians a war crime in 1980. After thirty-one years, America joined the global consensus, in 2011. Robert Neer has written the first history of napalm, from its inaugural test on the Harvard College soccer field, to a Marine Corps plan to attack Japan with millions of bats armed with tiny napalm time bombs, to the reflections of Phan Thi Kim Phuc, a girl who knew firsthand about its power and its morality.
