Conclusion: Oman?s eclectic take on ?energy security? -- Appendix -- Bibliography. . 330 $aThis book makes a substantial and timely contribution to discussions on energy security in Oman, providing a systematic analysis of energy security in Oman from 1920 to 2020. It is particularly relevant in light of the recent global geopolitics of the Gulf particularly, and the Middle Eastern region broadly, as well as connecting to current climate change research and debates. Combining a political sociological account with postcolonial concepts within a theoretical and empirical exploration of energy politics, the book weaves a study of energy security into the historical and contemporary development of political, economic, security, and social structures in Oman. Including interviews with Omani and Oman-based practitioners, as well as grounded in historical documents which include Arabic-language sources, this book evaluates the energy question beyond the typical economic perspective, considering socio-political opportunities and challenges. It also makes economic-related recommendations in tandem with rentier state theory. Unlike the dominant accounts of energy security in Oman, this book sets itself apart by moving away from utilising liberal and realist approaches for its analysis and engages systematically with critical security studies to introduce a non-Eurocentric perspective to the arena. Of interest to scholars in Middle Eastern history, energy security, and security studies, this book assumes an important place in the critical literature on the Gulf, particularly within environmental studies and energy policy literature. 410 0$aGulf Studies,$x2662-4508 ;$v6 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnergy and state 606 $aMiddle East$xPolitics and government 606 $aApplied ethics 606 $aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects 606 $aSecurity, International 606 $aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management 606 $aMiddle Eastern Politics 606 $aEnergy Ethics 606 $aEnvironmental Social Sciences 606 $aInternational Security Studies 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 0$aEnergy and state. 615 0$aMiddle East$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aApplied ethics. 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSecurity, International. 615 14$aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management. 615 24$aMiddle Eastern Politics. 615 24$aEnergy Ethics. 615 24$aEnvironmental Social Sciences. 615 24$aInternational Security Studies. 676 $a333.79 700 $aHarub$b Lamya$01453407 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910768201203321 996 $aDeconstructing ?Energy Security? in Oman$93656020 997 $aUNINA
