Old powers are falling. New states are emerging. The gap between
East and West is narrowing. What are the problems facing the
emerging new world order? Can action at the community level affect
global issues? An Introduction to Political Geography, in its first
edition helped shape the study of the discipline. Entirely revised
and updated, this new edition explores political and geographic
change within the same accessible framework. John Short emphasises
the need for a fluid approach to the study of the international
order, the nation state, as well as social movements. Though the
world is becoming smaller, popular access to power remains an
elusive goal. An integrated world economy may well perpetuate past
inequalities just as political systems continue to work by
exclusion. The global village and the ecological approach this
implies, must be paid particular attention when examining the
political geography of participation. An Introduction to Political
Geography reviews the history of the rise and fall of centres of
power, draws on a wide range of detailed international case studies
to illustrate current trends, and discusses future developments.
