This transition is creating new geopolitical dynamics. In the past, traditional energy geopolitics focused on the concentrated distribution of fossil fuel resources and the conflicts and dependencies that this created. In contrast, the 'new' renewable energy geopolitics emphasises the dispersed distribution or decentralisation of production capacity and the independence of states this generates. However, the market for lithium, which is essential to renewable energy storage through being a key component of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, does not entirely fit theoretical conceptions of the renewable energy market's dynamics. By focusing on China as a critical case, this article shows that lithium geopolitics has potentially created new (inter)dependencies and opportunities for conflicts, while also paradoxically enhancing state interindependence in renewable technology energy production. Thus, this hybrid form of energy geopolitics necessitates revising conventional energy security explanations to match these new market conditions.</p>","PeriodicalId":44455,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Political Science Review","volume":"27 1","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2022-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9403979/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80241117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study provides an example of crisis management in different countries and regime types.

These findings lead to the conventional wisdom that democracies provide conditions that promote better health for their citizens. The current study seeks to investigate health-democracy relationship in the context of recovery from COVID-19 disease. Unlike the conventional wisdom and based on 169 countries and regions around the world, for which information regarding accumulated recovery rates from coronavirus and Freedom House measures of democracy are available, findings suggest better projected prospects of recovery from COVID-19 disease in more \"autocratic\" countries. These findings may be explained on the grounds of (1) inefficient law enforcement in more democratic countries and (2) stronger autoimmune response (a cytokine storm, associated with COVID-19 severity) in Western countries due to excessive hygienic environmental conditions and, consequently, lack of exposure to different pathogens.</p>","PeriodicalId":44455,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Political Science Review","volume":"42 1","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2022-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9181934/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90463176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
