In the late 1990s, governments began investing hundreds of billions of dollars in foreign oil and gas assets through their national oil companies (NOCs), raising concerns about a 'resource war' and asymmetric interdependence. Most critics perceive the foreign investments of NOCs as politically driven and inefficient. In 'Fueling State Capitalism', however, Andrew Cheon sees these investments as commercial ventures by ambitious state-owned enterprises seeking to become global players amid rising oil prices.
