For decades, ideas hatched in the seminar rooms of 1960s France have been quietly percolating through American institutions.

It is the key to this conflict in much the same way that Vicksburg was to the Civil War. The double blockade of the Strait is creating a siege atmosphere and mindset. Daniel Yergin, the great energy scholar and scribe, calls this the biggest energy disruption in history. Resolving this grand disruption will not be easy or quick.
