Geopolitics concentrates on territory, borders, and strategic political and military positioning within the international state system. Geoeconomics emphasizes economic power, growth, and connectedness within a global, and supposedly borderless, system. Both discourses have strongly influenced the strategies of USAID and the views of American policy makers, bureaucrats, and businessGeographies of Justice and Social TransformationEconomic assistance, AmericanGeopoliticsEconomic geographyUnited StatesForeign economic relationsUnited StatesForeign relationsElectronic books.Economic assistance, American.Geopolitics.Economic geography.338.91/73Essex Jamey1977-996726MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463187203321Development, security, and aid2285301UNINA
