Russia’s Foreign Energy Policy
This book examines Russia’s multidimensional foreign energy policy and the emerging and ongoing conflicts with energy-consuming and transit countries. Russia’s Foreign Energy Policy examines whether the interdependence patterns shaped through various channels (such as foreign trade, investment, finance, technology, and social interactions) between Russia and energy-importing countries could prevent energy-based conflict. Drawing on semi-structured expert interviews, Kenan Aslanli challenges the one-sided conventional wisdom that focusses on foreign policy ambitions and overlooks the peculiarities of the energy dimension. Instead, Aslanli highlights the complexity of contemporary energy a...
Energy Capitol
Energy Capitol explores the waning of regulatory politics surrounding large-scale energy systems in the United States at the turn of the millennium. Throughout the twentieth century, large-scale energy systems in North America and Europe were highly regulated by a national political community whose decision-making authority relied on positions of bureaucratic and capitalist-led industry organization. After restructuring in energy markets such as natural gas and electricity during the 1980s, the culture of power surrounding political decision-making began to decline. Against this backdrop, Arthur Mason examines the struggle by oil companies and federal-state agencies to deliver natural gas fr...
Constitutional Discussions on Nuclear Energy in Germany
This book analyses the German constitutional system's responses towards nuclear energy. Robert Rybski begins with a presentation of energy security as a constitutional value and explores how it connects with nuclear energy. He also examines constitutional standards derived from the German Constitution, which directly regulates nuclear energy issues within the German system of power. The book presents the structure of sources of law that are binding in the area of security of nuclear installations and considers the impact that The European Atomic Energy Community had on the German constitutional system. The final part of the book is devoted to a novel judicial concept of the so-called Restris...
Taxing Choices for Managing Natural Resources, the Environment, and Global Climate Change
This book reviews taxing choices to protect the local and global environment and preserve and sustain natural resources. Alternative economic instruments such as carbon taxes and tradable permits to combat global climate change are also examined. Strategies and practices for the managing and sharing of revenues from natural resources are highlighted. Also, roles of various orders of government in managing, taxing, and sharing natural resources in selected countries are documented to highlight the impact of such division of responsibilities in preserving natural resources and the environment. The susceptibility of resource revenue dependent economies to corruption and malfeasance, and the Dutch disease, is also highlighted. This book could serve as a supplementary reference book for graduate and undergraduate courses and as a sourcebook for journalists, researchers, policymakers, and government practitioners.

İran Dış Politikasında İmparatorluk Vizyonu: Pers Yayılmacılığı
Devletlerin kimliklerini tanımlayış biçimleri doğrultusunda ulusal çıkarlarını da tanımladıkları görülmektedir. Bu kapsamda 1979 yılında gerçekleşen İslam Devrimi'nin ardından İran, Şiilik ile Fars kimliğini sentezleyen İranlılık olgusunu dış politikasının merkezine oturtmuştur. Bu durum, İran dış politikasında iki farklı imparatorluk vizyonunu beraberinde getirmiştir. Nitekim Tahran hem Şii-İslam Dünyası'nın siyasi ve dini kıblesi olmak istemekte hem de Fars Dünyası'nın büyük abisi olarak konumlanmaya çalışmaktadır. Bu hedefler doğrultusunda imparatorluk vizyonunu şekillendiren İran, Tahran'ı merkez karargâh olarak görmekte ve çevre...
Çevre Hakkı Çerçevesinde İran’ın Urmiye Gölü’ndeki Uygulamaları
Çevre hakkı gelişimini hızla tamamlayan bir insan hakkıdır. Çevre sorunlarının sınır aşan niteliği gereğiyle de sadece ulusal hukukun değil uluslararası hukukun da konusunu oluşturmaktadır. İran ise sınır komşumuz ve Türklerin yaşadığı bir coğrafya olarak her anlamda araştırılması gereken bir devlet olmuştur. Çalışmamızda İran’daki Türklerin yaşam alanından birisi olan Güney Azerbaycan Bölgesi’nde bulunan Urmiye Gölü ele alınmıştır. Göl son 50 yıldır kuruma tehlikesi ile karşı karşıyadır. Durumun ciddiyetini bildiren, kuruma sebeplerini ve çözümlerini ortaya koyan birçok çalışma bulunmaktadır. Çalışmamızda ise öncelikle çevre hakkı ayrıntısıyla incelenmiş sonrasında da Urmiye Gülü’nün yaşadığı çevre felaketi hukuki anlamda değerlendirilmiş ve İran’ın bölgedeki uygulamalarının çevre hakkının ihlalini oluşturup oluşturmadığı tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmamızın hem çevre hem de Urmiye Gölü hakkında yapılan çalışmalara katkı sağlaması dileğiyle.
