 :The biggest problem we face is that we cannot get the funding from independent sources on a sufficient scale to carry out social science research. For whatever reason, the government is happy to spend millions on drilling but not on funding the social science research.'

 ==Biography==
 :Prof. Bradshaw's academic background is in human geography. He competed his undergraduate training at the [[University of Birmingham]] (BSc) and he has an MA from the [[University of Calgary]] (Alberta) and he gained his PhD at the [[University of British Columbia]]. He works at the interface between economic and political geography, energy studies and international relations. He is a Fellow of the [[Royal Geographical Society]] (and past Vice President) and an Academician of the [[Academy of Social Sciences]].
-Prof. Bradshaw's research has focused on the geopolitical economy of global energy. For almost 20 years he has studied the development of the Sakhalin oil and gas projects in Russia's Far East. This has led to research on energy security in northeast Asia. He is currently examining Russia’s plans to develop its liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry. From 2008 to 2011 he was engaged in a programme of research examining the relationship between energy security, globalization and climate change, funded by a Leverhulme Trust Major Research Fellowship. In October 2013 Polity Press published his book entitled ''Global Energy Dilemmas''. He is currently completing a research project on Global Gas Security that is funded by the [[UK Energy Research Centre]] (UKERC). He plans to continue his research on the global geopolitical economy of the gas industry and is now working on the prospects for the development of shale gas in the UK and Europe (he is involved in a Pan European project on shale gas). He also plans to continue research on North American fossil fuel abundance and the global geopolitics of fossil fuels with further support from [[UKERC]].
