Introducción
We live in an energy-centric world where control over oil and
gas resources (and their means of delivery) translates into
geopolitical clout for some and economic vulnerability for
others. Because so many countries are dependent on energy
imports, nations with surpluses to export – including Iraq,
Nigeria, Russia, and South Sudan – often exercise
disproportionate influence on the world stage. What happens
in these countries sometimes matters as much to the rest of us
as to the people living in them, and so the risk of external
involvement in their conflicts – whether in the form of direct
intervention, arms transfers, the sending in of military advisers,
or economic assistance – is greater than almost anywhere else.
The struggle over energy resources has been a conspicuous
factor in many recent conflicts, including the Iran-Iraq War of
1980-1988, the Gulf War of 1990-1991, and the Sudanese Civil
War of 1983-2005. On first glance, the fossil-fuel factor in the
most recent outbreaks of tension and fighting may seem less
evident.
