Petro-Nationalism: The Futile Search for Oil Security
持逆向观点，认为石油消费国的石油民族主义安全政策可能无效、代价高昂且在国际上引发政治不稳定，强调合作解决全球石油安全公共品问题。
This paper takes the contrarian viewpoint that petro-nationalist oil security policies by oil consuming nations are likely to be ineffectual, very costly, and politically destabilizing internationally. Because the world oil market is one big bathtub, oil security is a public goods problem with a worldwide scope. Thus cooperative solutions are essential. Particularly troublesome are bilateral supply agreements and efforts to achieve oil autarky, which aim specifically at achieving a political or economic advantage vis-a-vis other oil consuming nations. These misguided actions are likely to trigger politically destabilizing oil resource competition among major oil consuming nations.
