Keywords:
"The new and updated eighth 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 political geography within the context of US-China competition, Russia's war with Ukraine, global climate change, new technologies, and challenges to democracy. It advances the discussion from the previous editions on 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 sectionson global climate change, populism, and the growing threat of global war. 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 coretext for students of political geography, geopolitics, international relations and political science, as well as more broadly across human geography and the social sciences"--

Recenzijas

"The latest edition of this classic text maintains the high standards of its predecessors while shedding new light on the insights a World-Systems-inspired Political Geography can provide on critical contemporary developments ranging from transnational migration, to 'climate coloniality,' to non-traditional forms of identity politics."

Professor Emeritus Alexander Murphy, University of Oregon

"This textbook remains the most exciting introduction to political geography and its basic themes, with its compelling scalar organization, its systematic application of world system analysis complemented by feminist geographies, and its broad coverage of other approaches in the discipline. Once more, the authors managed to incorporate new scholarship about the rapidly changing geographies of political relations across the world (with an emphasis on climate change and hegemonic competition) while maintaining the coherence of their presentation of the discipline. A fascinating resource and a warm welcome to political geography."

Dr Virginie Mamadouh, Associate Professor of Political and Cultural Geography, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Forty years after its genesis, Flint and Taylors text remains the definitive political geography primer. Magisterial in its scope and compelling in its approach, this new edition offers striking insights into the dynamics shaping our world, from the acceleration of AI and climate change to the revival of hegemonic rivalry.

Professor Meredith DeBoom, Assistant Professor of Geography, University of South Carolina
