Red Storm Ahead : securitisation of energy in US-China relations / Jonna Nyman. - 2014

Critical study of the securitisation of energy and the problems that arise from doing so. Uses as a case study the 2005 bid by China National Offshore Oil Corporation for Unocol, an American company. As a contrast also considers how the two countries have cooperated on shale gas in a non-securitised environment. Makes a case that energy should be desecuritised.
