The Social Evolution of World Politics

ISBN: 9783839465271Publication Date: 2023-08-27How can we understand long-term change in world politics better?

Today's analysts of world affairs are often loosely referring to 'geopolitics', but do not always clearly define it. This book therefore offers a necessary framework: an introduction into the main components of geopolitical analysis, an overview of the main geopolitical schools of thought, as well as reflections on how technology and geopolitics affect each other in economy, energy and security.
