- Cíle předmětu
- The aim of the course is to use the Asian example to build on and further strengthen students' knowledge of the energy systems' implications and transformations. The course is complementary with the introductory course to the Energy Policy Studies program in its basic reasoning. Simultaneously, it is easily understandable for students with no previous theoretical or empirical knowledge. The first part considers energy security as a policy concern on nation-states' level, as a problem of cross-border resource supplies, as a significant part of domestic and foreign policies, a strategic matter for governments. On examples of major actors' energy policies from the region (China, Russia, Central Asian producers), it touches its most conventional understanding. In the second part, the course moves to other reasoning lines, which go beyond the core concerns of having secure and reliable energy systems. It presents the lack of access to electricity and modern sources of energy millions in Asia still suffer. It points to negative consequences of energy modernization, the most acute of which is climate change. It examines how these concerns are (or are not) part of Japan, India, and China's energy policy strategies. Finally, the course comes to many controversies and conflicts, often related to energy systems and many competing visions that shape the energy systems and are shaped by them.
- Výstupy z učení
- After finishing the course, the students will be able to define major characteristics of energy policies in the region and assess their consequences. They will comprehend the links between various aspects of energy policies, such as the long-standing emphasis of states on the security of fossil fuel supplies over the environmental impact of existing policies, and the need to ensure energy security in synergy with economic growth and persisting energy poverty. They will understand the motives of states to move from traditional to modern sources of energy, as well as the reasons and major obstacles for existing energy systems transition. They will get familiar with the most critical energy conflicts and controversies in the region.
