Interest in relations between knowledge, power, and space has a
long tradition in a range of disciplines, but it was reinvigorated
in the last two decades through critical engagement with Foucault
and Gramsci. This volume focuses on relations between knowledge and
power. It shows why space is fundamental in any exercise of power
and explains which roles various types of knowledge play in the
acquisition, support, and legitimization of power. Topics include
the control and manipulation of knowledge through centers of power
in historical contexts, the geopolitics of knowledge about world
politics, media control in twentieth century, cartography in modern
war, the power of words, the changing face of Islamic authority,
and the role of Millennialism in the United States. This book
offers insights from disciplines such as geography, anthropology,
scientific theology, Assyriology, and communication science.
