The Petro-State Masquerade: Oil, Sovereignty, and Power

In the long oil century, the confluence of fossil fuels and sovereign authority gave rise to a new political form: the petro-state.
About this Event

Join us for a book talk where Prof. Ryan Cecil Jobson revisits this equation of fossil fuels and political power through one of the oldest and least talked about theaters of petrocapitalism: the twin-island Caribbean republic of Trinidad and Tobago.
