The author contradicts mainstream critical accounts of the market that typically invoke the notion of a global oil shortage and so-called ?peak oil? arguments. Instead, he argues that the development of the market has been punctuated by recurring oil price shocks. Chapters examine the evolution of the international oil market and investigate how the process of financialisation has transformed the structure and dynamics of the global oil market from 1970 to the present. The book suggests that the financialisation process is both the cause and the proof of a profound change in the structure of the global oil market that has turned the triangle of producers, consumers, and mediators into a four-tier structure through the addition of financial actors. Angelos Gkanoutas-Leventis is a political economist with commercial experience working for national and international oil companies. He is very active in the development of the hydrocarbon industry in the South East Mediterranean, having founded the Greek Energy Forum. He is also a member of the City Political Economy Research Centre (CITYPERC). . 606 $aCapital market 606 $aFinance 606 $aHistory 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aFinancial services industry 606 $aCapital Markets 606 $aFinancial History 606 $aEconomic History 606 $aFinancial Services 615 0$aCapital market. 615 0$aFinance. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aFinancial services industry. 615 14$aCapital Markets. 615 24$aFinancial History. 615 24$aEconomic History. 615 24$aFinancial Services. 676 $a332.0415 700 $aGkanoutas-Leventis$b Angelos$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0914207 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910156185203321 996 $aSpikes and Shocks$92048286 997 $aUNINA
