Produktbeschreibung

The Economics and Politics of China's Energy Security Transition clarifies China's energy and foreign policies through a comprehensive examination of energy sources, providing an insider's unique perspective for assessing China's energy policies.

In response to global questions about China's institutional, administrative, and political challenges and risks, this book provides the answers that everyone is asking.
