NTS Insight (Nov 2008) | Energy and Non-Traditional Security: A Tripartite Approach

Abstract

Energy supply and price volatility are no longer the only concerns that constitute contemporary energy security problems, which now comprise environmental and socioeconomic issues. Mitigating these non-traditional security concerns relating to energy use would necessitate a tripartite approach which revolves around harnessing technological solutions, implementing good market governance as well as complementing the role of the state with participation from civil societies.
