Discourses of Weakness and Resource Regimes, Volume 1 – serie

The acquisition and deployment of resources—natural and otherwise—will always be at the forefront of geopolitical discourse. At a time when the finite nature of these resources becomes clearer every day, that’s especially true. This book uses a humanities-influenced lens to examine how ideas of weakness affect the stockpiling and usage of resources, delving into the question of self-assessments by people and states alike can influence their handling of resources.
