DPP faculty Andreas Goldthau publishes book on Dynamics of Energy Governance in Europe and Russia (Palgrave)

DPP faculty member Andreas Goldthau published a new book with Palgrave Macmillan, coedited with Caroline Kuzemko (Warwick), Andrei Belyi (HSE) and Michael Keating (Richmond).

Energy in Europe and Russia is in flux. The book addresses key issues in this context and seeks to analyze contemporary transition processes in the region's energy sector. It looks at whether and how transnational policy mechanisms can generate sufficient steering capacity to address pressing energy policy issues, including environmental concerns, energy transit or rapidly changing natural gas markets. Moreover, it explores the impact climate change concerns have on policy making in the energy sector and to what extent market mechanisms provide for answers to these issues. Instead of taking a geopolitical or neoliberal approach, this energy policy debate acknowledges the strong interdependence of global, regional and domestic influences on the processes.
