Abstract
The rich and diverse sources of energy in Latin America have given the region a distinctive status as a net energy exporter. But the energy-related issues among countries of the region have, in recent years, become increasingly politicized, preventing them from evolving a common regional energy security strategy. This essay examines the current political and economic environment in the region and its apparent effect on energy production and distribution. It analyzes the recent regional initiatives for energy cooperation and explores how some of the energy-rich countries use their resources to gain political advantages through their foreign and economic policies.
