      abstract = {This book analyses the rapidly unfolding events that have  impacted on the European energy dynamics, in the light of  the way in Ukraine and the energy crisis that have  reconfigured, since 2022, the European and the global  geopolitical scene, dislocating not only crucial natural  resources but also the pace of the energy transition and  the continents existential security, its basic trust and  sense of continuity. It introduces an innovative  interpretation of the conflict and cooperation dynamics in  Europe, by challenging the reader to look beyond the  material aspects of energy security, related to supply and  demand, consumption, production and prices dynamics, which  I nonetheless explain in detail. Thus, it invites the  audience to explore the deeper layer of motivations that  underpin the actors decision to engage in conflict and  cooperation, by exploring their cognitive and psychological  considerations, in addition to the material ones. For this  purpose, it presents a new conceptual tool, the  conflict-cooperation perpetuum, in order to explain why the  same players, in this case the EU, Russia and Turkey, may  choose to simultaneously perceive each other as security  threats and trade partners, engaging in both conflict and  cooperation simultaneously with the same Other. In  addition, it proposes to apply the framework of ontological  security, in order to understand the responses of the EU,  Russia and Turkey to the major existential crises that have  affected them in past years, culminating with the war in  Ukraine and the energy crisis of 2022.
