Abstract

This chapter examines the historical and ongoing impact of resource scarcity on political decisions and sustainability movements. It discusses geopolitical asymmetries, challenges faced by developing countries, and the role of international cooperation in addressing resource-related issues. It underscores the importance of recognising and mitigating geopolitical factors and calls for a more inclusive and cooperative approach to global resource management.
