  • Blood Oil: Tyrants, Violence, and the Rules that Run the World

    Blood Oil: Tyrants, Violence, and the Rules that Run the World
    Dec 25 2024
    Leif Wenar's Blood Oil examines the global consequences of resource-rich countries' dependence on natural resource exports. The book argues that the current system allows authoritarian regimes to profit from the sale of resources, using the revenue to fund oppression and violence, ultimately harming both the citizens of those countries and the global community. Wenar explores the complex web of supply chains, illustrating how everyday consumer purchases unwittingly support these harmful practices. He proposes policy solutions, including Clean Trade initiatives, to encourage greater accountability and respect for human rights in the global resource market. The book ultimately advocates for a shift away from the "might makes right" principle, urging the adoption of stronger international legal frameworks that prioritize human rights and popular sovereignty.
