geopolitics.ppt
Geopolitics analyzes the relationship between geography and international politics. It studies how physical geography, human geography, and territorial waters influence diplomatic history and the interests of states. Some key factors in geopolitical analysis include the location, topography, size, shape, and demography of states, as well as their policies and actions. Classical geopolitical thinkers like Friedrich Ratzel, Alfred Thayer Mahan, and Halford Mackinder developed influential theories about the relationship between land and sea powers and the strategic importance of controlling key territories.
Boundaries
This document provides an overview of key concepts in political geography including states, nations, nation states, boundaries, and geopolitical theories. It discusses the definitions and characteristics of states, nations, and nation states. It describes different types of nation states and the evolution of the modern state. It outlines geographic characteristics of states such as size, shape, location, cores, and capitals. It discusses classifications and disputes around boundaries. It introduces concepts in geopolitics including theories like the heartland theory, rimland theory, and domino theory. It discusses centripetal and centrifugal forces that impact unity within states.
Presentation thouth
This document discusses the differences between systematic and regional geography. Systematic geography studies one geographic topic or phenomenon globally, such as climatology or soils. Regional geography analyzes all geographic aspects of a particular place or region. While these were initially seen as separate approaches, geographers now recognize them as interconnected and complementary. The regional provides real-world examples and data to test theories from systematic geography, while systematic studies form rules and laws that can be applied to different regions. Together, they provide a more comprehensive understanding of geography.
Mahan Sea Power
The document discusses the relevance of Alfred Thayer Mahan's geopolitical theories in the 21st century. It analyzes Mahan's key tenets on sea power and its importance for national success. Using tools like DIME analysis and comparisons between countries, it evaluates if concepts like control of trade routes and naval strength still apply. While Mahan's ideas retain relevance, the document concludes that land and air transport are improving and may one day rival sea power, lessening the complete validity of Mahan's theories in the modern context.

Geopolitical theory
Geopolitics is the study of how geographical factors like territory, population, resources, and location influence international politics and relations between states. Key thinkers in geopolitical theory include Alfred Thayer Mahan who argued sea power was essential for trade and power, Halford Mackinder who developed the Heartland Theory that control of the Eurasian core landmass meant control of the world, and Nicholas Spykman who argued control of the rimlands of Europe and Asia was more important than the heartland. Immanuel Wallerstein viewed the global political economy as consisting of core states that exploited peripheral states, with semi-peripheral states acting as buffers between them.
RURAL SETTLEMENT
This document discusses rural settlement patterns in Asia, focusing on patterns found in Bangladesh. It describes the main types of rural settlements as nucleated, dispersed, elongated, and cluster villages.

Heart land Theory
The Heartland Theory proposed by British geographer Halford Mackinder divided the world into three zones: the Heartland (Eurasia), the Inner Crescent (coastal regions surrounding the Heartland), and the Outer Crescent (remaining landmasses). Mackinder argued that whoever controlled the Heartland would control the world, and predicted power struggles between land and sea powers, with land powers ultimately prevailing. While the theory helped predict World Wars I and II, it oversimplified geopolitics and did not anticipate many later geopolitical developments.

frontiers and boundaries
This document discusses frontiers and provides classifications of different types of frontiers. It defines a frontier as a politico-geographical area at the margin of a political unit's territory where expansion can occur. Frontiers are classified based on their relationship to a state's sovereignty, indigenous populations, pace of expansion, and degree of trans-frontier contact. Examples include political frontiers which mark the limits of de facto state control, and settlement frontiers which indicate stages of state expansion into new lands. Frontiers can involve inclusion or exclusion of indigenous groups and can be dynamic with continuous expansion or static if expansion is halted. The document also distinguishes between frontiers and boundaries, noting that frontiers are outward-oriented zones while boundaries are

Lesson 2 superpowers and geostrategic theory
Dependency Theory and World Systems Theory help explain shifting global power dynamics. Dependency Theory views poor countries as dependent on rich countries due to trade relationships that maintain underdevelopment. World Systems Theory sees a core-semi-periphery-periphery global structure, allowing for mobility between these zones and their exploitation. Both theories shed light on how former colonial powers project influence over independent states through economic and political means, maintaining control in new forms of neo-colonialism.

Introduction to geopolitics
Geopolitics is the study of how geography influences politics and international relations. It examines how factors like territory, population, location of resources, and climate affect power relationships between states. The document provides examples of important geographic features like straits, canals, and land territories that have strategic geopolitical significance due to their role in international trade and military power projection. It also summarizes different historical theories and schools of thought regarding geopolitics and provides brief overviews of the geopolitical interests and concerns of countries like the US, China, and Canada.
Central place theory of august losch
- August Losch published his central place theory in 1940, attempting to explain the spatial arrangement, size, and number of settlements.
- He based the theory on assumptions including an isotropic surface, constant supply of goods, evenly distributed population, and that demand decreases with distance from production centers.
- The theory simplified the world to a flat plain with circular market areas that eventually form a hexagonal pattern as more producers enter the market and compete for profits.
- The theory was criticized for being too abstract and simplistic in its treatment of demand and locational interdependence. Empirical studies did not always match the predicted patterns.

Geopolitical Theory
Geopolitical theory examines the relationship between geography, politics, and international relations. Key thinkers in geopolitical theory include:
- Alfred Thayer Mahan (1890) who argued that naval power was essential for trade and that countries with long coastlines and access to key sea lanes would be most powerful.
- Halford Mackinder (1904) who developed the heartland theory that whoever controlled the strategically located heartland region of Eurasia would control the world.
- Nicholas Spykman (1940s) argued that the inner crescent region (Western Europe, Middle East, South Asia, Southeast Asia) known as the rimland was most important, as it provided access to both sea and

It discusses the main types of governments as democracy, monarchy, theocracy, dictatorship, and totalitarian. It also explains the differences between unitary and federal political systems. Additionally, the document outlines how natural and man-made boundaries are important delineations in political geography. It emphasizes how geopolitics examines the influence of geography and economics on international politics and relations between states.
Economic geography -an outline
The economy of the world is fast changing during the recent years.
The changes in primary, secondary and tertiary stages are dynamic in nature.
In view of this, the objectives of studying economic geography are to integrate several factors of economic development to acquaint with the dynamic aspects of the Scenario. This module is about basics of economic geography.
Definition and scope of settlement geography
Settlement geography is a branch of human geography that deals with how human populations are distributed on Earth and how settlements form and change over time. It examines characteristics like population size, layout, functions, and relationship to the surrounding environment. Originally focused on describing existing settlement patterns, the field has evolved to use remote sensing and modeling to analyze changes and plan more sustainable development. Settlement geography considers factors influencing where and how people first formed settlements and how they have expanded, as well as issues around rapid urbanization and strategies for improving rural and urban livability. While its scope has adapted over time, the core focus remains understanding the physical attributes of settlements and their interactions with social and environmental conditions.

approaches of political geography
The document discusses six approaches to political geography: power analysis, historical, morphological, functional, behavioral, and systematic. It focuses on defining and explaining the functional and behavioral approaches. The functional approach studies how political areas function and interact internally and externally. It examines centralizing and decentralizing forces. The behavioral approach identifies space as an independent variable and studies how human behavior is influenced by territorial boundaries and patterns.

Dark Ages Geography
This document provides information about the Dark Ages in Europe and the influence of geography on medieval society. It begins with questions for students to answer about the Dark Ages and European geography. It then defines the Dark Ages as the period from 476-1000 CE after the fall of Rome when Europe lacked leadership. Historians call it "Dark" due to lack of information and little cultural advancement. The document describes the different climates and crops of Northern and Southern Europe and how abundant resources like forests and farmland allowed small self-sufficient kingdoms to form. Geography shaped medieval society by providing good conditions for farming and production across Europe.
3 Schools of Geopolitics.pptx
This document summarizes the development of geopolitics as an academic field. It discusses several influential early theorists including Friedrich Ratzel who developed the concept of Lebensraum, Rudolf Kjellen who coined the term "geopolitics", and Halford Mackinder who developed the heartland theory. It also discusses the three main schools of geopolitical thought - the sea power school exemplified by Alfred Thayer Mahan, the land power school developed by Mackinder, and the emerging air power school. Later geopoliticians like Karl Haushofer and Nicholas Spykman further refined and challenged earlier theories. Overall it traces the evolution of geopolitics from its roots in political geography to its influence on world

British school of geography
This document discusses the British school of modern geographical thought. It outlines several key founders and contributors, including Halford Mackinder who formulated the heartland theory of geopolitics. It also discusses Patrick Geddes and his concepts of region and conurbation. Later contributors applied more quantitative and statistical analysis, like Richard Chorley and Peter Haggett who advanced models and theories using new techniques. In conclusion, the document traces how the British school evolved from early environmental determinism to incorporate more nuanced regional and inter-regional analysis, and eventually quantitative and positivist approaches.

The document discusses the primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary, and quinary economic sectors. The primary sector involves extracting raw materials from the earth. The secondary sector involves manufacturing finished goods. The tertiary sector provides services to individuals and businesses. The quaternary sector involves intellectual activities like research and education. The quinary sector involves high-level decision making. Developed countries have decreasing proportions of workers in primary and increasing proportions in tertiary sectors.
Culture
Culture is defined as the total way of life shared by members of a community, including both nonmaterial aspects like language and values as well as material objects. There are two main categories of culture: nonmaterial culture such as language, values, and meanings, and material culture consisting of physical objects produced by a society. Common assumptions about culture are that it is a problem-solving mechanism, it is relative to each individual culture, and it is a social product learned and changed by people over time. Culture is transmitted through carriers such as language, values, and norms.

The document summarizes several key ideas from Thomas Malthus' writings on population from the late 18th/early 19th century. Malthus believed that human populations grow exponentially while the food supply only grows arithmetically, so population growth will inevitably outstrip the food supply. He proposed "positive checks" like famine and disease and "negative checks" like delayed marriage that would control the population at or below the limit of the food supply. While controversial at the time, some of Malthus' core arguments regarding population growth and resource constraints remain relevant topics of discussion today.
