Main page > Books > The Grand Gas Game: a 50-Year-Old Rivalry Between the USA and Europe The Grand Gas Game: a 50-Year-Old Rivalry Between the USA and EuropeThis book presents reflections on the evolution of the natural gas industry and a 50-year cooperation between the USSR (and, later, Russia) and Europe in this domain. The book is based on factual information obtained from various sources, including archives, on conversations with gas industry veterans, and on analysis of events. Today’s developments regarding US sanctions, media hype about new gas pipelines to transmit Russian gas to Europe and Russia’s gas supplies are strikingly similar to what was going on 30, 40, or 50 years ago. One of notable features of this work is an attempt made by the authors to explore and analyze the decision-making process in both the USSR and Europe amidst a powerful political and sanctions-related pressure on the part of the US. The book is largely focused on the construction of the Urengoy — Pomary — Uzhgorod gas pipeline, especially on the decision-making process, so far as it relates to the construction, design, and equipment procurement. This book is dedicated to the men and women who, faced with complications of the Cold War and dramatic ideological and cultural differences, still managed to conclude a major gas deal that established a firm and reliable bond between Russia and Europe. The educatory value of this book is not limited to its historical content alone, as it also touches upon various political and economic issues. Table of Contents:
The book is also available in Russian, French and German. If you are interested to obtain please contact » Elena Kim |
