Description
In Prisoners of Geography, geopolitics expert Tim Marshall examines the past, present and future to explain how geography remains one of the major forces shaping world history and current events. This fully revised and updated edition reflects the changing global geopolitical landscape since the book’s first publication, with new material on the Russia-Ukraine war and Moscow’s alliances with authoritarian states, conflicts in the Middle East, China’s growing military and strategic power and its stance on Taiwan, American global power and its pivot to the Pacific, Europe’s move towards more extreme politics, increased defence spending and the new “Iron Curtain,” Japan’s remilitarisation, the great-power struggle in Africa, and the growth of Indian economic and military strength. The book offers insights into the forces behind the news, from China’s ambitions to the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza, showing why geography is essential to understanding the fast-changing world.
