Critical Geopolitics

Critical geopolitics is a field within political geography that examines how political leaders and media shape our understanding of world politics and geography. It challenges traditional views by analyzing the narratives and discourses used to describe countries and international relations. This perspective highlights how maps and representations influence public perceptions, national identity, and foreign policy. Ultimately, critical geopolitics reveals that geopolitics is not just about physical locations, but also about the ideas and power dynamics that inform how we interpret global events and relationships.
