Abstract
This is a comprehensive course covering the main themes of the global energy order from its early years in the 19th century to the present day with a particular focus on energy policies and the role of energy in international relations.
The course is aimed at equipping students with comprehensive ideas about energy policy and diplomacy at the global, the international-regional and the national level. The global processes under consideration include the study of energy geopolitics, international political aspects of the problem of transition to a carbon-free economy, the relationship between diplomacy, energy and ecology. At the international-regional level, the energy strategies of the world's largest players are analyzed: the USA, China, the EU countries, Russia, the Middle East, as well as the international contradictions and conflicts associated with these strategies.
