Description
In Border Wars, Professor Klaus Dodds takes us on a journey into the geopolitical conflict of tomorrow in an eye-opening tour of the world’s best-known, most dangerous and most unexpected border conflicts from the Gaza Strip to the space race, we discover how the best-known border conflicts of our age are intensifying, and explore the dangerous and often unexpected sites of border conflict that are revealing themselves today, from the highest peaks to deep under sea.
Along the way, we’ll discover just what borders reveal of our modern world. How are they built; what do they mean for citizens and governments; how do they help understand our political past and, most importantly, our diplomatic future?
