Cover of John Agnew: Geopolitics (PDF)

Geopolitics identifies and scrutinizes the central features of geopolitics from the sixteenth century to the present. The book focuses on five key concepts of the modern geopolitical imagination: * Visualising the world as a whole * The definition of geographical areas as ‘advanced’ or ‘primitive’ * The notion of the state being the highest form of political organization * The pursuit of primacy by competing states * The necessity for hierarchy.
