Based on research in governmental and business archives in Iran, the United Kingdom, and the United States, it examines a series of disputes concerning petroleum exploration, property rights, the organization of labor, geological knowledge, accounting methods, oil distribution, and the calculation and control of profits. The goal is to understand how the construction of oil infrastructure reconfigured the local politics of the oil regions and how these arrangements in turn shaped the emergence of both the national state and the multinational oil corporation now known as BP. There has been no study of this kind, with the amount of rich, first-hand information Shafiee has gathered from Iran and elsewhere. Shafiee rethinks the role of oil in the early to mid-twentieth century as a non-human actor whose agency shapes and is shaped by the various techno-social transformations she discusses. She combines archival research with extensive field work at various sites in Iran--sources that are missing from the scholarship on both Iran and the oil industryIncludes bibliographical references and indexAnglo-Iranian Oil Company1.6\x(DE-588)276278-XBritish Petroleum Company1.7\x(DE-588)2005982-6British Petroleum Company1901-1954stwIranBritish Petroleum Company338.88722338095557.3615.0915.7615.64BSZ512366403978-0-262-03704-4HT021592670Infrastructures seriesMachineries of oilShafiee, KatayounCambridgeMassachusetts : The MIT Press, 2018Online-Ausgabe9780262344845http://www.gbv.de/dms/zbw/89118189X.pdfhttps://www.gbv.de/dms/zbw/89118189X.pdf466PUM591120221116202301122506252rda https://ce.visuallibrary.net//domainresource/static/graphics/connectors/viewerLogo.gif http://193.30.112.129:83/F/?func=find-c&ccl_term=ICS%3D2506252 https://ce.visuallibrary.net/id/1162768 https://ce.visuallibrary.net/i3f/v20/1162768/manifest https://ce.visuallibrary.net/proto_ftsearch/1162768
