"In Nico Stehr's view, knowledge is now the most significant source of economic growth - the 'prime productive factor.' This shift to a knowledge-based society, however, is a source of some uncertainty and apprehension. Will it bring a more sustainable, less ecologically disruptive form of production, or escalating levels of unemployment? What are the practical social, political, and economic implications of the new technology? What are the possibilities for social action in a context where such possibilities are being limited? Stehr proposes that a new social science agenda is needed to address these and other urgent questions arising from the new economic realities." "Knowledge and Economic Conduct is essential reading for students and social scientists with an interest in technology, globalization, and the changing economy, as well as for researchers and policy makers within both the public and private sectors."--Jacket. 410 0$aStudies in comparative political economy and public policy. 606 $aInformation society 606 $aKnowledge workers 606 $aEconomic history$y1990- 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInformation society. 615 0$aKnowledge workers. 615 0$aEconomic history 676 $a330.9/049 700 $aStehr$b Nico$0147271 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818672203321 996 $aKnowledge and economic conduct$94107436 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05774nam 2200817Ia 450 001 9910827253403321 005 20240514045805.0 010 $a9786613374110 010 $a9780470980163 010 $a0470980168 010 $a9781283374118 010 $a1283374110 010 $a9780470980187 010 $a0470980184 010 $a9780470980170 010 $a0470980176 035 $a(CKB)3400000000000318 035 $a(EBL)792452 035 $a(OCoLC)784883473 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000536267 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11364495 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000536267 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10547499 035 $a(PQKB)10954676 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC792452 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL792452 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10510306 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL337411 035 $a(OCoLC)690090012 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB179577 035 $a(Perlego)1006851 035 $a(EXLCZ)993400000000000318 100 $a20101207d2011 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aEnergy security $ean interdisciplinary approach /$fGawdat Bahgat 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aChichester, West Sussex, U.K. $cWiley$d2011 210 1$aChichester, West Sussex :$cWiley,$d2011 215 $a1 online resource (256 pages) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 1 $a9780470689042 311 1 $a0470689048 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aENERGY SECURITY; Contents; About the Author; Preface; Acknowledgements; List of abbreviations; Glossary; 1 Introduction; 1.1 Energy Security; 1.2 Diversification of Energy Mix; 1.2.1 Oil; 1.2.2 Natural Gas; 1.2.3 Coal; 1.2.4 Nuclear Power; 1.2.5 Biofuels; 1.2.6 Other Renewable Sources; 1.2.7 Investment; 1.2.8 Resource Nationalism; 1.2.9 Geo-policy; 1.3 Conclusion; References; 2 United States; 2.1 Oil; 2.2 Natural Gas; 2.3 Coal; 2.4 Nuclear Power; 2.5 Ethanol; 2.6 The Quest for an Energy Strategy; 2.7 Conclusion: The Way Forward; References; 3 European Union; 3.1 The EU Energy Outlook 327 $a3.1.1 Oil3.1.2 Natural Gas; 3.1.3 Coal; 3.1.4 Nuclear Power; 3.1.5 Renewable Sources; 3.2 Russia; 3.3 Central Asia/Caspian Sea Region; 3.4 Mediterranean Sea; 3.5 The Gulf Cooperation Council; 3.6 Turkey; 3.7 Conclusion: The Way Ahead; References; 4 China; 4.1 Regulatory Authority; 4.2 Oil; 4.2.1 Imports from the Middle East; 4.2.2 Africa; 4.2.3 Central Asia; 4.2.4 Refining; 4.2.5 Shipping; 4.2.6 Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR); 4.3 Coal; 4.4 Natural Gas; 4.5 Nuclear Power; 4.6 Renewable Energy; 4.7 Overseas Exploration and Production; 4.8 Conclusion; References; 5 Persian Gulf 327 $a5.1 Socio-economic and Political Challenges5.1.1 International Sanctions; 5.1.2 Wars and Ethnic/Sectarian Strife; 5.1.3 Terrorism; 5.1.4 Closure of Straits of Hormuz; 5.1.5 Domestic Instability; 5.1.6 Underinvestment; 5.2 Saudi Arabia; 5.3 Iran; 5.4 Iraq; 5.5 Conclusion: The Way Forward; References; 6 Africa; 6.1 Algeria; 6.2 Libya; 6.3 Egypt; 6.4 Sudan; 6.5 Angola; 6.6 Nigeria; 6.7 United States and Africa; 6.8 Europe and Africa; 6.9 Conclusion: The Way Ahead; References; 7 Caspian Sea; 7.1 Hydrocarbon Resources - An Assessment; 7.1.1 Azerbaijan; 7.1.2 Kazakhstan; 7.1.3 Turkmenistan 327 $a7.2 The Legal Status of the Caspian Sea7.2.1 Azerbaijan; 7.2.2 Kazakhstan; 7.2.3 Russia; 7.2.4 Turkmenistan; 7.2.5 Iran; 7.3 Geopolitical Rivalry and Pipeline Diplomacy; 7.3.1 Iran; 7.3.2 Russia; 7.3.3 China; 7.3.4 Europe and the United States; 7.4 Conclusion: The Way Forward; References; 8 Russia; 8.1 Oil Sector; 8.2 Natural Gas; 8.3 The Energy Strategy-2030; 8.3.1 Oil Sector; 8.3.2 Gas Sector; 8.4 The Arctic Hydrocarbons; 8.5 Russia-EU Energy Partnership; 8.6 Russia, the Middle East, and OPEC; 8.7 Energy Sector Organization; 8.8 Conclusion: The Way Forward; References; 9 OPEC and Gas OPEC 327 $a9.1 OPEC: History and Evolution9.2 OPEC: Objectives, Membership, and Organization; 9.3 OPEC Summits; 9.4 OPEC: Long-Term Strategy; 9.5 Gas OPEC; 9.6 GECF and OPEC; 9.7 Oil vs. Gas; 9.7.1 Russia; 9.7.2 Iran, Qatar, and Algeria; 9.7.3 Consumers' Reaction; 9.8 Conclusion; References; 10 International Energy Agency; 10.1 The Founding of the IEA; 10.2 The International Energy Program; 10.3 Structure of the IEA; 10.3.1 The Governing Board; 10.3.2 Standing Groups; 10.3.3 The Secretariat; 10.3.4 Membership; 10.4 Energy Security; 10.4.1 Emergency Response Mechanisms; 10.5 How Did the System Work?
