Inhalt:
Jakub J. Grygiel brings to light the importance of incorporating geography into grand strategy. Examining case studies of the Venetians, the Ottoman Empire, and the Chinese in the global fifteenth century, he argues that states can increase and maintain their position of power by pursuing a geostrategy that focuses on control of resources and lines of communication.
