Fuelling Insecurity (eBook, ePUB)

Energy Securitization in Azerbaijan

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Known as 'the land of fire', Azerbaijan's politics are materially and ideologically shaped by energy. In the country, energy security emerges as a mix of coercion and control, requiring widespread military and law enforcement deployment.

This book examines the extensive network of security professionals and the wide range of practices that have spread in Azerbaijan's energy sector. It unpacks the interactions of state, supra-state, and private security organizations and argues that energy security has enabled and normalized a coercive way of exercising power. This study shows that oppressive energy security practices lead to multiple forms of abuse and poor energy policies.
