Politics in China and Its Oil Needs


Politics plays a very important role in our everyday lives.  With the very importance and problems of China, political analysts are now saying that they would have to make sure that they do not enter into a quasi war.  “In this quasi war, each side has capitalized on its own strengths and the other side's weaknesses”  This means that on one point, we can see China play on its oil needs and at the same time play on what it can give to other countries.

An inter-civilization quasi war had developed between the Western civilization and the Islamic civilization following the 1979 Iranian Revolution.  However, before looking at the intricacies of the quasi war between the West and Islamic countries, let us first answer the question:  what is a “quasi-war”?

In terms of a quasi war, a quasi-war is a kind of war that has the almost resemblance to a war except it is a war that has been unofficially declared and had not official start and will probably have no official end.  Historically speaking, the first quasi war was the war between the United States and France from 1798 to 1801.  

Hence, a conventional notion of war is a battle of one side to another side wherein each side as a right to exist and the parties are only enemies until the end of the war, the main goal of a war is the subjugation of one party over another.  

Usually, a war is ended when one party has already been defeated by the other party.  This means that not unless China accepts that they have been defeated when it comes to their oil needs over what they can offer, China cannot move on with their economics and the power play of the world may eat up China alive.
