Abstract

Despite the fact that many geopolitical theories have been conceived, the conditions of the contemporary geopolitical environment have changed dramatically, leading major actors to behaviours that cannot be explained such as the New Space Race, massive (dis)information campaigns/operations, and cyber operations. The purpose of this Chapter is to introduce a new theory of geopolitics that facilitates the interpretation of this behaviour, in the context of the emerging dynamics of the geopolitical arena and identify the new strategic domains that contribute to the enhancement of a state's national power.
