近年来，原油价格上涨、国际经济危机、北非和中东地区内乱、日本海啸核威胁、墨西哥湾漏油事件、中国、印度等新兴国家经济增长等，都与世界能源供应安全直接相关。本书对能源风险、能源情景和能源政策进行了全面分析，特别针对欧盟及其成员国，强调能源安全的经济和地缘政治层面。该书定量和定性地评估了与欧洲能源供应相关的社会经济和政治风险，以及欧盟与其他国家的能源关系。制定了两项创新指标来评估地缘政治能源风险以及与其他国家的能源相关关系。本书还探讨了成员国能源安全政策的趋同过程、欧洲共同能源政策的路径以及欧盟接收能源进口的能源走廊的欧洲化进程。此外，还评估了与能源风险相关的替代战略情景。最后，提出了欧盟能源政策指南和利用能源走廊的新战略，以最大限度地提高欧盟的能源安全。这本书应该引起广泛学科的学生和研究人员的兴趣，包括能源经济学和政策、欧盟的能源和外交政策、欧盟成员国的能源政策以及与国际政治经济相关的几个方面。
Recent developments like the rising trend in crude oil price, the international economic crisis, the civil revolts in Northern Africa and the Middle East, the nuclear threat in Japan after the tsunami, the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and the economic growth of emerging countries like China and India have a direct relation to the security of energy supply anywhere in the world. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of energy risks, energy scenarios and energy policies with special reference to the European Union and its member states, emphasizing the economic and geopolitical dimensions of energy security. The book assesses both quantitatively and qualitatively the socioeconomic and political risks related to the European energy supply, together with the EU's energy relations with other countries. Two innovative indicators have been developed to estimate geopolitical energy risks and energy-related relations with other countries. The book also examines the process of convergence of member states' energy security policies, the path towards a common European energy policy, and the process of Europeanization projected towards the energy corridors through which the EU receive energy imports. In addition, alternative strategic scenarios related to energy risk are assessed. Finally, guidelines for the EU's energy policy and new strategies using energy corridors are suggested in order to maximize EU's energy security. The book should be of interest to students and researchers across a wide range of subjects, including energy economics and policy, energy and foreign policy in the EU, energy policies in EU member states and several aspects related to international political economy.
