Abstract
In current international relations, the energy realism has become the main arena for political conflict. Energy defines the pursuit of state power; international economic relations have dominant tinge for the purpose of energy security. The international or regional energy systems are not managed via economic forces only; they are manipulated by political systems. But it has to work with public economics linking energy security with the welfare of human beings in a holistic manner in different regions of the world. This paper is significant to flash South Asia in international energy system as growing economically, and shaping the future development of world as well. The tapestry of conflict related to energy security vis-à-vis South Asia with horizontal and vertical perspectives leads to propose 3D strategy for management of energy security for South Asia. 3D strategy includes the Management of Regional Interests at National Level, Management of Regional Interests at Regional Level, and Management of Regional Interests at International Level.
