Introducing our latest book, "Global Energy Security and American Hegemony (Themes in Global Social Change)". This must-read analysis delves deep into the intricate relationship between US military supremacy and its maintenance of global power, particularly in oil-rich regions.

Forget the clichés of American intervention solely in the Middle East. Authors Doug Stokes and Sam Raphael broaden the scope by examining US actions in Latin America, Central Asia, and Africa. Meticulously researched, this book draws on State and Defense Department records, primary sources, and previous scholarship to reveal the full extent of US foreign policy's pursuit of a global energy security regime.

It's not just about protecting American interests; it's about supporting allies while solidifying American hegemony on the world stage. Stokes and Raphael astutely illustrate how US intervention in energy-rich states acts as a shield, safeguarding transnational actors and political economies. Moreover, they uncover the significance of American oil diversification strategies, which strengthen the nation's position against its rivals in the global capitalist system.

Worried about the potential for revolutionary armed and unarmed internal social forces? Fear not! Through counterinsurgency aid and other coercive US statecraft, recipient states are shielded from such threats. This ensures the energy supplies of nations strategically important to the United States and its allies remain secure.
