Book Synopsis Lire Les Images, Voir Les Textes by : Louise Maurer
Download or read book Lire Les Images, Voir Les Textes written by Louise Maurer and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2006 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume are situated in French and Australian contexts and focus on texts linking language and visual images. There is an emerging debate in universities concerning the interpretation of images, whether in the field of aesthetics, politics or technology. The contributors focus on images ranging from photography to maps, films, paintings and computer games. In addition they consider relations between genders and nations, as understood in particular historical or semiological contexts. Geographic and disciplinary boundaries are consciously transgressed and blurred, so that a new interdisciplinary dialogue between written texts and visual arts emerges. Ce recueil d'essais, situé dans le contexte d'échanges franco-australiens, a pour objet les liens entre images et langage sur le plan du discours. L'interprétation du visuel fait l'objet d'un débat émergeant dans les universités, que ce soit dans le domaine de l'esthétique, du politique ou de la technologie. Les contributions analysent des images allant de la photographie, aux jeux multimédia en passant par les cartes, le cinéma et la peinture. Par ailleurs, elles interrogent les relations tant au niveau de l'individu que des nations dans des contextes historiques et sémiologiques spécifiques. Les contributeurs traversent les frontières disciplinaires et géographiques, de façon à susciter un nouveau dialogue interdisciplinaire entre textes et arts visuels.
Book Synopsis Transport Geopolitics by : Luc Ampleman
Download or read book Transport Geopolitics written by Luc Ampleman and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides readers with fresh new theoretical tools to better understand how sociopolitical actors (from governmental institutions to ecological NGOs; from local residents to multinational companies) clash about transport initiatives. It questions both the dominant understanding of what is geopolitics and conventional conceptions in transport geography used by transport planners. Drawing on a structuralist approach and addressing the capital notion of 'political control of mobility', it demonstrates how transport geopolitics, by being more inclusive of all modes of transport and all scales of analysis, may help prepare transport diplomacy in a time of critical global and local turbulences. It offers a valuable resource for research and teaching in the fields of transport studies, land-use planning, conflict studies, human geography and politics, presenting insightful theoretical material and concrete transport conflict examples to support teaching about territorial conflicts, political governance and transport political geography.

Download or read book Geopolitics at the End of the Twentieth Century written by Nurit Kliot and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excellent examination of how the collapse of the Soviet Union and the impact of globalization have brought about changes not only to the territorial configuration sovereignty of states and their boundaries, but also to traditional notions of state, boundaries, sovereignty and social order These essays focus on the key regional and geopolitical characteristics of this global reordering, with an emphasis on Eastern Europe and South Asia. They discuss the territorial reordering which is taking place at the level of the state as boundaries are redemarcated in line with ethno-territoral demands; as borders are transversed by the movement of peoples, information and finance; and as the lines of territorial demarcation are perceived not only in terms of their fixed characteristics but as part of a process through which regional and ethnic identities continue to be formed and reformed. Each section ends with articles which focus on literature on geopolitics and boundaries. This is an invaluable addition to our understanding of contemporary world affairs.

Book Synopsis Geopolitics and International Relations by :
Download or read book Geopolitics and International Relations written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-12-13 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although we live in a globalised world, territorially embedded factors are highly relevant in such domains as security, economy, energy, environment, politics & diplomacy. Today’s analysts of world affairs are often loosely referring to ‘geopolitics’, but do not always clearly define it. This book therefore offers a necessary framework: an introduction into the main components of geopolitical analysis, an overview of the main geopolitical schools of thought, as well as reflections on how technology and geopolitics affect each other in economy, energy and security. In addition, several empirical studies are showcased, each developing innovative approaches. Leading authors reflect upon containment, analyse geopolitical myths, research geoeconomic rivalries, study mental maps, analyse conflict through territorially embedded variables & greed motivations and apply ‘neo-medievalism’ to study sub-state diplomacy. Contributors include: David Criekemans, Gyula Csurgai, Luis da Vinha, Manuel Duran, Alexandre Lambert, Antonios Nestoras, and Steven Spittaels.
Book Synopsis The Ashgate Research Companion to Critical Geopolitics by : Merje Kuus
Download or read book The Ashgate Research Companion to Critical Geopolitics written by Merje Kuus and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late 1980s, critical geopolitics has gone from being a radical critical perspective on the disciplines of political geography and international relations theory to becoming a recognised area of research in its own right. Influenced by poststructuralist concerns with the politics of representation, critical geopolitics considers the ways in which the use of particular discourses shape political practices. Initially critical geopolitics analysed the practical geopolitical language of the elites and intellectuals of statecraft. Subsequent iterations have considered the role that popular representations of the international political world play. As critical geopolitics has become a more established part of political geography it has attracted ever more critique: from feminists for its apparent blindness to the embodied effects of geopolitical praxis and from those who have been uncomfortable about its textual focus, while others have challenged critical geopolitics to address alternative, resistant forms of geopolitical practice. Again, critical geopolitics has been reworked to incorporate these challenges and the latest iterations have encompassed normative agendas, non-representational theory, emotional geographies and affect. It is against the vibrant backdrop of this intellectual development of critical geopolitics as a subdiscipline that this Companion is set. Bringing together leading researchers associated with the different forms of critical geopolitics, this volume produces an overview of its achievements, limitations, and areas of new and potential future development. The Companion is designed to serve as a key resource for an interdisciplinary group of scholars and practitioners interested in the spatiality of politics.
Book Synopsis THE WAR IN UKRAINE AND ITS GLOBAL GEOSTRATEGIC AND GEOPOLITICAL CONSEQUENCES by : Julien Bokilo Lossayi
Download or read book THE WAR IN UKRAINE AND ITS GLOBAL GEOSTRATEGIC AND GEOPOLITICAL CONSEQUENCES written by Julien Bokilo Lossayi and published by American Academic Press. This book was released on 2023-11-13 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russia's invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 revealed a real rift between the Western clan and Russia with its post-war allies. This rift is reinforced by the entry into NATO of the former Soviet republics, as soon as the geopolitical gla-cis formed by fifteen republics protecting the USSR col-lapsed. This war, accompanied by tensions between China and Taiwan, has raised the risk of a world order upheaval. This book first offers a historical analysis of how this Russian-Ukrainian war came about and to what extent this conflict accentuated the rift between the two sides. The West became cobelligerent by delivering, for example, arms to Ukraine, which fed the black market, by sending instructors, the case of the French, for the use of even Caesar cannons, and by harshly sanctioning Russia, without foreseeing the wave of consequences in the world (galloping inflation and risks of famine). On the other hand, in this confrontation, Moscow benefits from the support of certain developing countries and the BRICS. Moreover, this war is moving to the African continent and becoming a hybrid. Secondly, the analysis highlights the fact that this conflict has highlighted one of the important continuous fault lines in the international architecture of this era. This fracture is characterized by three aspects of dissimilarity: the African perceptions of the war in Ukraine marked by the disparity of the foreign policies of the states; the consequences of this war cause a new look at international policies from a geopolitical as well as a geostrategic and economic point of view; and the perspectives of this war on the course of the world and its evolution.

Book Synopsis The Caliphate at War by : Ahmed S. Hashim
Download or read book The Caliphate at War written by Ahmed S. Hashim and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The military victories of the Islamic State have completely overturned the geopolitical map of the Middle East. Media attention has focused almost exclusively on Islamic State's savage treatment of its enemies and its ability to attract foreign fighters. In 2011, the first effort to build an Islamic State in Iraq was defeated by US and Iraqi forces. The second attempt to establish themselves, beginning in 2014, has been considerably more successful and that success calls for deeper investigation. In order to explain the successes of Islamic State, The Caliphate at War brings together a dispassionate and objective account of the significant innovations in insurgency, ideology, and governance. By focusing their ideology first and foremost on extreme anti-Shia sectarianism - rather than on Western "infidels" - the Islamic State's founders are able to present themselves as the saviors of what they see as the embattled Sunni "nation" in Iraq. Its success in taking and holding major cities, including Mosul, demonstrates its innovative tactics and skill at exploiting tribal and sectarian rivalries. By going beyond the often starkly unpleasant current affairs of the Islamic State, The Caliphate at War undertakes an essential investigation into the successes of the group, to better understand how the movement is surviving, thriving, and reshaping the Middle East.
