The collapse of the Soviet Union and the impact of globalization
have brought about changes not only to the territorial
configuration sovereignty of states and their boundaries, but also
to traditional notions of state, boundaries, sovereignty and social
order.
These essays are a selection of the papers originally presented at
the International Geographical Union conference on Geopolitics and
Globalization in a Post-Modern World, held in Israel in 1998.
The first section focuses on the wider regional and geopolitical
characteristics of global reordering, with an emphasis on Eastern
Europe and South Asia.
The second section discusses the territorial reordering which is
taking place at the level of the state as boundaries are
redemarcated in line with ethno-territoral demands; as borders are
transversed by the movement of peoples, information and finance;
and as the lines of territorial demarcation are perceived not only
in terms of their fixed characteristics but as part of a process
through which regional and ethnic identities continue to be formed
and reformed.
Each section ends with articles which focus on literature on
geopolitics and boundaries.
