This timely collection offers fresh perspectives on the analysis of the "New Great Game" -- the fight for access to the former Soviet Union's energy resources. Thus far the export of crude oil and natural gas has only been assessed through a geopolitical lens, which oversimplifies the political dynamics of the region and neglects to acknowledge the post-Soviet countries as actors in their own right. Broadening the scope of analysis, this volume brings together insights from various different angles, including the securitisation of energy issues, the formation of post-Soviet energy policies, and the motives of local business and political actors.
