Big Oil Playground, Russian Bear Preserve Or European Periphery?
Author: Bjørn Brunstad
Publisher: Eburon Uitgeverij B.V.
ISBN: 9059720393
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 215
Book Description
"Barents Russia" is the far northwestern corner of the Russian Federation, bordering on the Barents Sea and the affluent Nordic countries. It is a region full of natural resources - petroleum, fish, minerals, etc - much of which is yet to be exploited. The region is heavily influenced by the Cold War and 70 years of Soviet central planning, with heavy industry concentrated in "company-towns", and with a strong military presence. The region also houses some serious threats to a vulnerable Arctic environment. The ten past years have brought historic changes in Barents Russia and in the relations between this region and the world around it. Yet, the next couple of decades may bring even more profound changes, the direction of which is hard to predict. Much hangs in the balance, ranging from the supply of oil and gas to the world market to broader political issues such as the future for democracy and the rule of law, the protection of the environment, the integration into world trade and the old favourite topic of the high north - the strategic balance. This book presents three plausible but provoking scenarios for the future of Barents Russia: "Big Oil Playground", "Russian Bear Preserve" or "European Periphery", and will hopefully contribute to increased attention and deeper understanding of the forces and actors that will shape the region. The aim is for the scenarios to provoke new insights about change dynamics, opportunities and challenges, and to serve as a backdrop for public planning, corporate strategy making and more. Book jacket.

Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
In 1983, Florida author Patrick Smith and his wife Iris traveled throughout the Soviet Union and Uzbekistan through an invitation from the Soviet Writers Union. Smith relates these experiences through fascinating stories and images in the fun, factual chronicle. This story takes place in a time when the former Soviet Union was still very much the Soviet Union and was known throughout the Western World as “The Iron Curtain.” It was a land of mystery and intrigue and few Americans visited there except in guided tour groups. Fewer still were given the opportunity to mingle freely with the people.This book is in no way a political treatise. It is a story of people, places, and things. Perhaps it will give the reader an intimate glimpse of ordinary, everyday people both in Russia and Middle Asia. Hopefully, it will also bring alive some fascinating places you may never have the opportunity to see first-hand. There is high humor in this book, as well as heartfelt moments. It paints vivid pictures of places few Americans have seen or will see. The descriptions are so real that readers will feel that they have been there. There is also much in this book for food lovers to enjoy. The descriptions of food, both Russian and Uzbek, are exceptional.In Search of The Russian Bear is unlike any other book set in Eastern Europe and Middle Asia. It is unique and will take readers on a fascinating journey.
