New Security Frontiers

'A careful, sobering discussion of the "new energy order" we now live in. This distinguished group of international scholars explores the ramifications of rising geopolitical competition for energy, water, and food, and calls for a novel security strategy-collective action. Especially good in highlighting the unintended consequences of shortsighted market based solutions typically advocated by politicians. An essential contribution to an important topic.' Nicolai N. Petro, University of Rhode Island, USA 'Welcome home: National security returns to its pre-Cold War roots and finds its new challenges complex and difficult. Gone are the days when a strong military industrial partnership and robust force structure was sufficient to defend and advance the cause of freedom. Now we must not only consider American military power, but the climate, energy and water demand equal strategic consideration. These new security frontiers claim thoughtful analysis and consideration by academia as we plot our course through the early years of the 21st Century. New Security Frontiers: Critical Energy and Resource Challenge is a superb place to start.' Kenneth A. Minihan, former Director of the National Security Agency and the Defense Intelligence Agency, USA
