Description

The geopolitical balance of power has shifted significantly in recent years, with current trends suggesting a tectonic realignment that could be felt for centuries. Jeremy Black examines this shift and its implications, drawing on historical analysis to inform our understanding of the present and future. In his new book, Black considers the 120-year period since Halford Mackinder's seminal lecture "The Geographical Pivot of History", which predicted that the struggle for control over Eastern Europe would be the next great conflict. As the world grapples with the aftermath of a deadly pandemic and ongoing global tensions, Black argues that this moment may be history's next great pivot point. Black's timely analysis offers a nuanced understanding of geopolitics in the present and future, shedding light on the challenges facing US postwar hegemony and the continued volatility of the global system.
