In a world so dependent on the need for oil and gas, it's no wonder why oil rich nations like Russia hold such power on the global stage.

And what does the development of clean energy mean for those dependent on oil?

In this episode, James is joined by author Emma Ashford to help explore the potential links between oil production and possession in influencing foreign policy, as well as how global conflict can be exasperated by oil's very presence.
