The Politics of Oil: A Study of Private Power and Democratic Directions is a book written by Robert Engler that explores the role of private power in the oil industry and its impact on democratic governance. The book delves into the history of the oil industry, tracing its origins and growth, and examines how private corporations have used their power and influence to shape policy and decision-making in the energy sector. Engler argues that the concentration of power in the oil industry has had a negative impact on democracy, as corporations have been able to manipulate the political process to their advantage, often at the expense of the public interest. The book also explores alternative models of energy governance, including community-based approaches and public ownership, and provides recommendations for how democratic control over the energy sector can be strengthened. Overall, The Politics of Oil is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the intersection between private power and democratic governance in the oil industry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
