Abstract:

This report sets down the results of research on some of the significant problems relating to energy and national security. The emphasis taken by this study goes beyond the more obvious first-order issues, previously analyzed. It deals with less obvious but increasingly important problems, and including 1 The relationship of the security of oil supplies to prevailing market conditions in the past and in the future 2 The more general question of access to non-oil global resources and U.S. policy 3 The scope of oil revenues for domestic and foreign investment and patterns of economic development and investment in Middle East oil producing countries and 4 The relationship of energy and American economic security and concomitant implications for security and foreign policy issues.
