In the context of geopolitics, much hinges on the answer to that question. For thousands of years, it has been the work of diplomats to draw the lines in ways that were most advantageous to their leaders, fellow citizens, and sometimes themselves. Carving Up the Globe offers vivid documentation of their handiwork. With hundreds of full-color maps and other images, this atlas illustrates treaties that have determined the political fates of millions. In rich detail, it chronicles everything from ancient Egyptian and Hittite accords to the first Sino-Tibetan peace in 783 CE, the Sykes-Picot Agreement of 1916, and the 2014 Minsk Protocol looming over the war in Ukraine. But there is more here than shifting territorial frontiers. Throughout history, diplomats have also drawn boundaries around valuable resources and used treaties to empower, liberate, and constrain. Carving Up the Globe encompasses these agreements, too, across land, sea, and air. Missile and nuclear pacts, environmental treaties, chemical weapons conventions, and economic deals are all carefully rendered. Led by Malise Ruthven, a team of experts provides lively historical commentary, which--together with finely crafted visuals--conjures the ceaseless ambition of princes and politicians. Whether they sought the glory and riches of empire or pursued hegemony, security, stability, and GDP within the modern international system, their efforts culminated in lines on a map--and the enormous real-life consequences those lines represent and enforce"--Dust jacket. 000852368 650_0 $$aPolitical geography$$vMaps. 000852368 650_0 $$aTreaties$$xHistory$$vMaps. 000852368 650_0 $$aWorld politics$$vMaps. 000852368 650_0 $$aDiplomacy$$vMaps. 000852368 7001_ $$aRuthven, Malise,$$eeditor,$$econtributor,$$ewriter of introduction. 000852368 7102_ $$aBelknap Press,$$epublisher. 000852368 85200 $$bgen$$hG1046.F1$$iC3$$i2018 000852368 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:852368$$pGLOBAL_SET 000852368 980__ $$aBIB 000852368 980__ $$aBOOK
