The contraction of global energy supply due to geopolitical tensions has prompted the publication of this timely book, which delves into the responses of resource-scarce developing countries to challenges in energy security. In particular, it examines the evolution of overseas energy investment by two industrial giants in East Asia, Korea and Japan, with a focus on countries pursuing autonomous energy supply options such as oil/natural gas, nuclear power, or renewable energy. Through a historical case study, the book offers valuable insights into how states establish policies and navigate political procedures for energy security. While rooted in historical events, the book also provides a fresh perspective on the international energy market by contextualizing the repetitive nature of past events.
The book conducts an in-depth analysis highlighting the contrasting outcomes resulting from different political systems. One case study illustrates how a small number of veto players successfully established and expanded state-owned oil companies, while simultaneously creating policy inconsistencies. Conversely, another case study demonstrates how a larger number of veto players led to policy consistency but hindered the establishment and expansion of state-owned oil companies. This comprehensive review of East Asian politics adds value to the field of East Asian Studies by presenting a new approach through a universal theory rather than cultural uniqueness.
As a readable case study on energy security, this book serves as an essential reference for scholars, policymakers, industry insiders, and citizens interested in understanding how nations respond to historic challenges in a political and international context.
