The Revenge of Geography by Robert D. Kaplan is a work of geopolitical analysis that argues for the continuing power of physical geography in shaping history, state behavior, and future conflict. Published in 2012, the book challenges optimistic claims that globalization, technology, markets, or ideology have made territory less important. Kaplan draws on earlier geopolitical thinkers and on his own background as a foreign correspondent to examine how mountains, plains, rivers, deserts, climates, borders, and resource locations influence political choices. The book is not a technical geography textbook or a predictive model. It is a broad interpretive essay on how maps reveal strategic pressures that leaders cannot ignore. Its main purpose is to restore geography to the center of foreign policy thinking, especially in relation to Eurasia, Russia, China, Iran, the Indian subcontinent, Turkey, the Arab world, and the United States.
