US-China Hegemonic Rivalry and Its Impact on World Energy and Oil Flows
The United States, a country having the standards of a hegemon, is trying to maintain it, and China, as an emerging power on the international stage, is trying to establish itself as an American hegemonic rival to world. A common point in hegemonic confrontation between the United States and China in field of energy is tendency of both countries to the Middle East region. Although this is not new to the United States, China's tendency to counter threat to its energy security is significant, as China seeks to exert its influence in other areas. This study tries to answer its main question about the impact of US and Chinese hegemonic competition on the flow of energy and oil in world by emphasizing different perspectives in the field of hegemony, especially Gramsci theory. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the hegemonic competition between the United States and China and its impact on flow of energy and oil in the world. The research method used in this research is descriptive-analytical. Resukts showed that there is a hegemonic rivalry between the United States and China rather than a hegemonic confrontation. Because China is in an early stage of hegemonic competition with the United States it is not clear that this competition will lead to China's success and whether it will be able to introduce itself as a hegemon. China does not have the necessary criteria to introduce itself as a hegemon in all fields and, as Gramsci states, it does not have the necessary acceptance.
