The Palgrave Geopolitical Atlas: State and Quasi-State Actors in Great Power Competition is a comprehensive, authoritative survey of the twenty-first century global politics. Going beyond the traditional state-centrism in the international relations discipline, this book re-orients both states and quasi-states as critical geopolitical actors.
This book challenges the state-centrism in orthodox international relations scholarship. Advancing a post-sovereign lens, this book re-imagines a global geopolitical map that features different types of states and quasi-states. By doing so, this book transcends the mainstream great power-small state framework in geopolitical studies and advances a novel agenda for investigating the interaction of states and quasi-states in global politics. It guides readers to interpret the twenty-first century global geopolitical map through a post-sovereign lens.
This book will be an essential reference for international relations scholars and students around the world. It will also appeal to global policy makers and practitioners who are observing the dynamics of contemporary great power competition.
