Excellent piece by Kent Ewing, a Hong Kong academian, about China, oil and international relations.
Ewing wrote this in October of 2006 and China's need for energy has become more compelling than ever.
The worrisome question for analysts is whether, now that Beijing is going full-throttle to fuel its continuing economic boom and boost its rise as a world power, the country’s thirst for oil will drive up world prices and bring it into conflict with the United States, Japan and the European Union.
