A comprehensive and timely overview of the subdiscipline of political geography, equipping readers with the intellectual tools to explore complex global phenomena

The Wiley Blackwell Companion to Political Geography offers a wide-ranging overview of the dynamic field, providing critical insights into the ways political geographers investigate and interpret the rapidly changing world. Reflecting the dramatic shifts in global events and politics over the past decade, this thoroughly updated volume bridges theoretical debates and empirical research to provide a clear and comprehensive understanding of foundational themes and critical contemporary issues.

With contributions by an interdisciplinary team of leading experts, the second edition of the Companion incorporates fresh perspectives on topics including climate change, terrorism, the intersection of materiality and politics, geopolitical ecologies, natural resources, and identity politics. New and revised chapters address topics such as peace, health, water politics, ocean geographies, postcolonialism, feminist geographies, and practice-based methods in geography. Throughout the book, the authors highlight the connections between the shifting political landscape and core concepts of power, borders, territory, sovereignty, nationalism, citizenship, and more.

Whether for classroom use or research, The Wiley Blackwell Companion to Political Geography is a valuable resource for anyone looking to explore the dynamic field of political geography. It is an ideal textbook for students of political geography, political science, international relations, and environmental studies, and also serves as a key reference for scholars and professionals seeking an in-depth understanding of the latest developments and intellectual trajectories of the field.
