Inaugural lecture by Professor Klaus Dodds

Geopolitics: An  A-Z Guide

Inaugural Lecture

Tuesday 25 November 2008

Professor Klaus Dodds
Department of Geography, Royal Holloway, University of London
Windsor Building Auditorium, 6pm

Geopolitics appears to be back in fashion. Political leaders are talking again about ‘spheres of influence’, the return of the ‘Cold War’ and even a ‘global security envelope’. While geographical reasoning remains at the heart of foreign and security policies, it is also manifested in popular culture including film, TV and radio.  In this lecture, Klaus Dodds offers an A-Z guide on the subject and along the way will take in Antarctica, James Bond and much more.

The lecture will be followed by a reception in the Windsor Building Foyer at Royal Holloway, University of London.

All welcome.
