Rising Powers, Shrinking Planet: The New Geopolitics of Energy with Author Michael Klare
Join Foreign Policy In Focus Contributor Michael Klare for a talk about his new and timely book: Rising Powers, Shrinking Planet: The New Geopolitics of Energy

The new century is all about natural resources—who has them, who can control and distribute them. With greater competition for shrinking supplies, international cooperation is essential to avoid chaos. Please join Michael Klare and Foreign Policy In Focus in this timely discussion on this increasingly important topic.

Michael T. Klare is a professor of peace and world-security studies at Hampshire College, a Foreign Policy In Focus columnist, and author of numerous books, including Blood and Oil: The Dangers and Consequences of America’s Growing Dependency on Imported Petroleum , Resource Wars: The New Landscape of Global Conflict , and  Rogue States and Nuclear Outlaws.
