Saul Bernard Cohen
S. B. Cohen :
Geopolitics of the world system
Written by one of the world's leading political geographers, this
textbook examines the dramatic changes wrought by ideological and
economic forces unleashed by the end of the Cold War. Saul Cohen
considers these forces in the context of their human and physical
settings and explores their geographical influence on foreign policy and
international relations. Presenting a global spatial scope, the book
considers the entire hierarchy of geopolitical units---subnational,
national states, and quasi-states; geopolitical regions; and
geostrategic realms. By emphasizing the interaction between geographical
settings and changing ideological and economic forces, Cohen has succeeded in creating a new global geopolitical map.
