Abstract

Prior to employment at Georgia Southern University, Jeffery A. Jones co-authored "Geopolitical Information and Communication in Shrinking and Expanding Worlds: 1900-2100" alongside Stanley D. Brunn and S. O'Lear in Reordering the World: Geopolitical Perspectives on the Twenty-First Century.

Book Summary: Using an integrative approach to international relations, the second edition of Reordering the World returns the “geo” to geopolitical analysis of current global issues. The contributors focus on key emerging world issues, such as spatial data technology, IGOs/NGOs, gender and world politics, boundary disputes, refugee flows, ecological degradation, and UN intervention in civil wars. They also assess the redefinition of international relations by instantaneous, worldwide financial and telecommunication linkages and explore the struggles of new multinational and nongovernmental organizations to define their roles. Using current real-world examples, this group of eminent geographers challenges the reader to rethink international relations and reorder the world political map.
