About this ebook
This timely and original book puts the ‘geo’ back into geopolitics, placing environmental resources at the heart of global power, and demonstrating how struggles over energy, water and critical minerals are reshaping the planet. International case studies show how state sovereignty is hollowed out by global capital, with power concentrated in the material networks of pipelines, dams and digital grids.
Bringing together critical geography, political ecology and resource geographies, the author offers a compelling materialist framework for understanding a rapidly changing world. This authoritative and elegantly written book exposes how global power is hardwired into the physical earth, providing an indispensable framework for navigating our reconfigured world order and planetary survival.
