Thus, rather than trying to impose a single "fashionable" theory, leading geographers John Agnew and Luca Muscara consider the underlying role of changing geopolitical context as their framework for understanding the evolution of the discipline. The authors trace the development of key thinkers and theories during three distinct periods-1875-1945, the Cold War, and the post-Cold War-emphasizing the ongoing struggle between theoretical "monism" and "pluralism," or one path to knowledge versus many. The world has undergone dramatic shifts since the book's first publication in 2002, and this thoroughly revised and updated second edition focuses especially on reinterpretations of the post-Cold War period. Agnew and Muscara explore the renewed questioning of international borders, the emergence of the Middle East and displacement of Europe as the center of global geopolitics, the rise of China and other new powers, the reappearance of environmental issues, and the development of critical geopolitics. With its deeply knowledgeable and balanced history and overview of the field, this concise work will be a valuable and flexible text for all courses in political geography. 606 $aPolitical geography 606 $aGeopolitics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPolitical geography. 615 0$aGeopolitics. 676 $a320.1/2 700 $aAgnew$b John A$0107639 701 $aMuscara?$b Luca$0150348 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453293003321 996 $aMaking political geography$92206655 997 $aUNINA
