  Energy Insecurity with Chinese and American Characteristics: implications for Sino-American relations
 
 
Title: Energy Insecurity with Chinese and American Characteristics: implications for Sino-American relations
Author: Pollack, Jonathan D.
Appeared in: The journal of contemporary China
Paging: Volume 17 (2008) nr. 55 pages 229-245
Year: 2008-05
Contents: This paper reviews Chinese and American energy futures, focusing in particular on long-term oil supply and demand, policy deliberations in China and (to a lesser extent) the United States on energy strategy and its implications for national-level decision making, and the implications of Sino-American energy futures for bilateral relations. There is far more commonality in the energy requirements of both countries than is often acknowledged, but this overlap is often obscured by domestic political agendas, corporate and bureaucratic interests, and the increasing tendency to view energy as a defense planning issue, in particular with reference to future Chinese and US maritime strategies. The conditions for heightened Sino-American energy collaboration exist, and some important initial steps have been undertaken toward this end. But sustained and far more vigorous governmental and institutional interactions will be needed to forestall the potential for heightened antagonism in the longer-term energy futures of both countries.
