The Geographical Pivot of History

En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on the strategic significance of interior Asia and eastern Europe during World War I, the author presents a political geography thesis first introduced in 1904. He posits that the heartland has become the center of the "World Island" due to the decline of sea power. His insights, articulated during the Paris Peace Conference, advocate for a balance of power between Britain and the U.S. and propose establishing independent states to separate Germany and Russia. The work also emphasizes the need for regional cooperation and warns against the chaos that could arise from a defeated Germany.
