Description
This book provides a comprehensive analytical framework for young people to interpret the complex international landscape, demonstrating that geopolitics is the key to understanding the power dynamics that govern the world, from military decisions to economic trends.The report is structured around the following core ideas:The Evolving Nature of Power: Geopolitics, traditionally based on land (Heartland) and sea (Rimland) power, has expanded to include non-geographic factors such as technology, economics, and climate. In the modern era, power is multidimensional and cumulative , measured in the ability to dominate the "Digital Heartland"-the control of semiconductors, artificial intelligence (AI) and information networks-where technological research is a geopolitical end in itself. Foreign policy follows the principle of Realpolitik, prioritizing a state's security and economic interests over ideology. Geographic Dominance and Choke Points: Physical geography remains fundamental, determining the economic potential and vulnerabilities of countries.
