This book was released on 2021-08-10 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edition mise à jour En tant que géographe, Stéphane Rosière apporte ici un éclairage essentiel sur les disciplines éminemment spatiales que sont la géographie politique et la géopolitique. Il les présente de manière tout à fait originale en tant que savoirs distincts, mais formant, ensemble, un tout cohérent. La géographie politique est l’étude du « cadre politique » qui est formé de territoires de lignes — frontières et réseaux —, et de pôles structurants. Cette discipline, trop marginale en France, est surtout développée dans les pays anglo-saxons. La connaissance du cadre politique est pourtant nécessaire à tout raisonnement géopolitique. La géopolitique est l’étude de l’espace considéré comme « enjeu ». À ce titre, elle implique alors une connaissance des acteurs, de leurs représentations territoriales, de leurs pratiques de l’espace, et de leurs motivations. La finalité de cet ouvrage est donc de présenter l’essentiel des concepts opératoires pour mener à bien des analyses de géographie politique ou de géopolitique. Il a ainsi pour ambition d’être une véritable « grammaire » de l’espace politique en proposant des définitions claires et rigoureuses, et une méthodologie cohérente pour ces deux disciplines. Cette approche paraît nécessaire alors que chercheurs et citoyens sont confrontés à une mondialisation non pacifiée, à un monde fragmenté et parcouru de tensions. En effet, la compréhension du monde passe aussi par une bonne connaissance de ces savoirs géographiques.

Download or read book Political Geography written by Colin Flint and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new and updated seventh edition of Political Geography once again shows itself fit to tackle a frequently and rapidly changing geopolitical landscape. It retains the intellectual clarity, rigour and vision of previous editions based upon its world-systems approach, and is complemented by the perspective of feminist geography. The book successfully integrates the complexity of individuals with the complexity of the world-economy by merging the compatible, but different, research agendas of the co-authors. This edition explores the importance of states in corporate globalization, challenges to this globalization, and the increasingly influential role of China. It also discusses the dynamics of the capitalist world-economy and the constant tension between the global scale of economic processes and the territorialization of politics in the current context of geopolitical change. The chapters have been updated with new examples – new sections on art and war, intimate geopolitics and geopolitical constructs reflect the vibrancy and diversity of the academic study of the subject. Sections have been updated and added to the material of the previous edition to reflect the role of the so-called Islamic State in global geopolitics. The book offers a framework to help students make their own judgements of how we got where we are today, and what may or should be done about it. Political Geography remains a core text for students of political geography, geopolitics, international relations and political science, as well as more broadly across human geography and the social sciences.
Download or read book Geography and National Identity written by David Hooson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1994-10-20 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of especially commissioned essays explores the geography of, and the role of geography in, national and proto-national identity. Place and national identity are bound together. Attachment to the one is almost always inseparable from the sense of the other. Yet, as this volume shows, the articulated self-conscious linking of place and identity is by and large a modern phenomenon that took root in nineteenth-century Europe. The formation of supranational states and the much vaunted globalization of culture led many to believe there would be a progressive dilution of national identities and a growing agglomeration of places and nations into larger state units. Precisely the reverse has taken place. This book explores the connections between identity and homeland, showing how a place may be perceived as archetypal, endowed with love and celebrated in music and poetry, yet be a pretext for violence and war. It examines the evolution of ideas about identity and their manifestations in a wide variety of settings, from the former Soviet Union to the island states of the South Pacific.

Download or read book An Introduction to Political Geography written by Martin Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to Political Geography continues to provide a broad-based introduction to contemporary political geography for students following undergraduate degree courses in geography and related subjects. The text explores the full breadth of contemporary political geography, covering not only traditional concerns such as the state, geopolitics, electoral geography and nationalism; but also increasing important areas at the cutting-edge of political geography research including globalization, the geographies of regulation and governance, geographies of policy formulation and delivery, and themes at the intersection of political and cultural geography, including the politics of place consumption, landscapes of power, citizenship, identity politics and geographies of mobilization and resistance. This second edition builds on the strengths of the first. The main changes and enhancements are: four new chapters on: political geographies of globalization, geographies of empire, political geography and the environment and geopolitics and critical geopolitics significant updating and revision of the existing chapters to discuss key developments, drawing on recent academic contributions and political events new case studies, drawing on an increasing number of international and global examples additional boxes for key concepts and an enlarged glossary. As with the first edition, extensive use is made of case study examples, illustrations, explanatory boxes, guides to further reading and a glossary of key terms to present the material in an easily accessible manner. Through employment of these techniques this book introduces students to contributions from a range of social and political theories in the context of empirical case study examples. By providing a basic introduction to such concepts and pointing to pathways into more specialist material, this book serves both as a core text for first- and second- year courses in political geography, and as a resource alongside supplementary textbooks for more specialist third year courses.

Download or read book The Structure of Political Geography written by Julian Minghi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-04 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume seeks to provide a sense of purpose and order to the study of political geography. The editors devise a conceptual structure for the field, bringing political geography into line with trends in contemporary geography as a whole and with other social sciences. Not only do the selections contain a wide variety of contributions from other fields, but the introductory essays and annotated bibliographies suggest related research. The structure of the book enjoys close parallels in other social sciences.The organization of the book reflects the editors' definitions and structuring of political geography. Part I, ""Heritage,"" includes works that have contributed to the theoretical development of the field. Part II, ""Structure,"" comprises the concern to which political geographers have devoted most of their past attention. Parts III and IV, ""Process"" and ""Behavior,"" form the subject where much future theoretical and practical effort is needed. Part V, ""Environment,"" provides the context in which spatial structure, process, and behavior occur.The Structure of Political Geography includes selections from sociobiology, history, international relations, political economy, political science, social psychology, and sociology. The classics in the field are an essential inclusion since the book would be incomplete without them. The selections in the volume, originally published in 1971, remain useful and pertinent to political geographers of diverse persuasion and to social scientists interested in geographical approaches. The fact that there is a clear focus and conceptual interdependence in political geography is the volume's greatest contribution.
Download or read book Les espaces de la politique written by Paul Claval and published by Armand Colin. This book was released on 2010-06-23 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le pouvoir mobilise la force et la menace qu’elle fait peser. Il repose sur la légitimité ou s’appuie sur la domination économique et l’influence idéologique. Puisque la coercition impose des décisions à des individus réticents – mais implique une surveillance permanente –, une autorité acceptée fonctionne à moindres coûts. Ainsi, les jeux du pouvoir, d’abord diffus, se sont concentrés dans un système politique qui coiffe, contrôle et dirige la société civile. C’est à partir de la Renaissance que l’État souverain s’est structuré en s’appuyant sur le territoire, sur la frontière et sur la capitale. Dès lors, la vie internationale repose sur des équilibres de dissuasion. Aujourd’hui, le monde est remodelé par la mondialisation de l’économie, la facilité accrue des déplacements et des communications, et le désir de pacifier la vie internationale. L’État national perd ses prérogatives, les instances de décision se multiplient, et les citoyens pèsent davantage sur la politique intérieure et étrangère. On parle de gouvernance. Toutefois, les relations internationales ne parviennent pas à s’affranchir de la dissuasion. Dans un ouvrage résumant trente ans de réflexion, Paul Claval propose une synthèse magistrale renouvelant la géographie politique et la géopolitique. Paul CLAVAL, est professeur émérite à l’Université de Paris-Sorbonne.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to Political Geography provides a broad-based introduction to how power interacts with space; how place influences political identities; and how policy creates and remoulds territory.
