Explanation of the book
The book seeks to study the impact of the growing American need to secure its needs from traditional energy sources in a sufficient and safe manner to keep pace with its economic growth, which is one of its sources of global strength, on American foreign policy, focusing on the Caspian Sea region as a case study to illustrate the extent of the impact of energy security on American foreign policy towards one of the promising production regions, about which US Vice President Dick Cheney said in 1998 when he was the head of Halliburton: “The Caspian Sea region is a promising oil region that is growing very quickly to become a strategic region of great importance to the United States and the West in general, because the gas and oil there are not subject to the control of OPEC.”
