2006 y.

Oil, Politics and Violence: Nigeria`s Military Coup Culture 1966-1976

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: An insider traces the details of hope and ambition gone wrong in the Giant of Africa, Nigeria, Africa`s most populous country. When it gained independence from Britain in 1960, hopes were high that, with mineral wealth and over 140 million people, the most educated workforce in Africa, Nigeria would become Africa`s first superpower and a stabilizing democratic influence in the region.However, these lofty hopes were soon dashed and the country lumbered from crisis to crisis, with the democratic government eventually being overthrown in a violent military coup in January 1966. From 1966 until 1999, the army held onto power almost uninterrupted under a succession of increasingly authoritarian military governments and army coups. Military coups and military rule (which began as an emergency aberration) became a seemingly permanent feature of Nigerian politics.The author names names, and explores how British influence aggravated indigenous rivalries. He shows how various factions in the… [detailed...]

Oil, War, and Anglo-American Relations: American and British Reactions to Mexico`s Expropriation of Foreign Oil Properties, 1937-1941 (Contributions in Latin American Studies)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Mexican expropriation of British and American properties in March 1938 marked the first time any oil-producing country successfully stood up to foreign companies who claimed to own oil properties in that country and who had the support of their respective governments. Although both Washington and London wanted a return to the pre-expropriation status quo, Washington was unwilling to work with London to achieve this goal, and Washington`s attitude paralleled its reaction to British efforts to get U.S.support on certain defense issues during this critical period. The resulting Anglo-American strife over how to handle Mexico was also consistent with Anglo-American commercial competition and the oil rivalry in Mexico early in the century. [detailed...]

The Washington Post Matthew Yeomans begins his investigation into the role of oil in America by trying to spend a day without oil?only to stumble before exiting the bathroom (petroleum products play a role in shampoo, shaving cream, deodorant, and contact lenses).

Author Michael Klare ( Blood and Oil ) called it `a clear, comprehensive overview of the U.S. oil industry in one compact and highly readable volume,` and Boldtype praised Yeomans`s `crisp journalistic… [detailed...]

In fact, it`s about as far from ideal as possible, and when they start arguing about food--which they inevitably do--the sparks really fly. In this volume of Oishinbo the subject of dispute is fish, starting with the question of whether mackerel can ever be truly good sashimi. Later, things come to a head during the `Salmon Battle,` which pits father against son in an epic contest to develop the best dish before a panel of judges. Will Yamaoka finally defeat Kaibara? Or will he once again be left in his father`s shadow? [detailed...]

Description: In Oko- Kapitalismus, three top strategists show how leading hedge companies are practicing `a new type of industrialism` that is more efficient and profitable, while saving the environment and creating jobs. Paul Hawken and Amory and Hunter Lovins write that in the next century cars will get 200 miles per gallon without compromising safety and power, manufacturers will relentlessly recycle their products, and the world`s standard of living will jump without further damaging natural resources. `Is this the vision of a utopia? In fact, the changes described here could come about in the decades to come as the result of economic and technological trends already in place,` the authors write. Die Wirtschaftsstragien der Zukunft werden sich an der effizienten Nutzung natuerlicher Ressourcen orientieren. Sie werden damit nicht nur umweltbedingte und soziale Probleme loesen, sondern auch Wohlstand bringen. [detailed...]
