The Ashgate Research Companion to Critical Geopolitics Van Merje Kuus and Klaus Dodds is an English-language reference work that provides an in-depth look at the development of critical geopolitics as a field of research. This study book is intended for professionals and researchers in political geography and international relations.
Since the 1980s, critical geopolitics has undergone a significant transformation, evolving from a critical approach within political geography into a fully fledged field of study. It examines how political discourses influence geopolitical practice, from the language of power elites to popular representations. The book also discusses recent developments in the field, such as feminist critique, normative perspectives, and affective geographies.
This title aligns with themes such as geopolitics, political science, and international relations, and provides an overview of the main insights, limitations, and future research directions within critical geopolitics.
