Geopolitics and the Quest for Dominance

Jeremy Black explores how history and geography shape the operation and perception of power, emphasizing that geopolitics involves more than just physical space—it also encompasses ideas and perceptions. Spanning from the 15th century to modern times, the study examines key periods such as the rise of British power, imperialism, World War II, and the Cold War, alongside influential theorists. The book offers a wide-ranging analysis of the spatial dimensions of state strategy and policy across history.
