Making Political Geography (Human Geography in the Making)

Making Political Geography is a fascinating look at how the field of political geography has developed, and how it engages with key political issues and events, both historical and contemporary. John Agnew adroitly demostrates how changing geopolitical contexts have been critical to the making of political geography. He focuses on the people, historical contexts and scholarly works that have produced the various meanings of political geography throughout its history, drawing out elements of both continuity and change.Important thinkers and currents of intellectual thought from Ratzel and Mackinder to Taylor and O Tuathail are discussed in terms of their contribution to the field but also as products of their specific places and times. Case studies, examples and vignettes are woven throughout the text, vividly illustrating the concepts presented through the analysis of issues such as environmentalism, drug trafficking, and international terrorism.The reader is left in no doubt that political geography is a vibrant field with a critical contribution to make to the understanding of politics. Making Political Geography is essential for all students of political geography.

Besides discussing and assessing current themes, Agnew provides a historical analysis of the emergence of modern political geography from the 1890s onwards, identifies and discusses the three "waves" of the revival of political geography during the last three decades, and discusses evidence for a new coherence to the discipline, centering around issues of geographical scale, place and politics, etc.

Mastering Space: Hegemony, Territory and International Political Economy

For over two hundred years, the domination of some countries by others has been intrinsic to international relations, with national economic and political strength viewed as essential to a nation's survival and global position. "Mastering Space" identifies the essential features of this "state-centredness" and suggests an optimistic alternative more in keeping with the contemporary post-Cold War climate. Drawing on recent geopolitical thinking, the authors claim that the dynamism of the international political economy has been obscured through excessive attention on the state as an unchanging actor. Dealing with such topical issues as Japan's rise to economic dominance and America's perceived decline, as well as the global impact of continued geographical change, the book discusses the role of geographical organization in the global political economy, and the impact of increasing economic globalisation and political fragmentation in future international relations. The authors identify the present time as crucial to the global political economy, and explore the possibilities of moving the world from mastering space to real reciprocity between peoples and places.

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.
