Abstract
In this chapter we consider the experience of three Caspian economies: Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan since independence.1 We provide an overview of the economic setting to give a regional context for our economic analysis of companies-governments relations. We pay special attention to developmental differences and the role of hydrocarbons in their economies, as well as political-economy challenges with which the governments are currently faced.
