解説
This volume offers a first comprehensive geography of peninsulas, in which 'almost islands' serve as windows onto how peninsularity shapes politics, identity, nation-building and engineering ambitions.
Like other geographies, peninsulas influence, but never dictate, human choices. Nineteen chapters, spanning multiple scales and disciplines, interrogate three interlocking themes: the internal divisions within peninsulas; the tensions across their isthmuses; and the engineering and political imagination that isthmuses provoke. The result is a theoretically grounded yet empirically diverse collection of works that will equip students and scholars with fresh tools for understanding how land, water and borders shape identity, territorial transformations, governance and power.
Written primarily for students and scholars of geography, geopolitics and international relations, it will also appeal to those working in political science, anthropology, history and island studies. Its global reach and accessible writing make it equally relevant to the intellectually curious general reader drawn to questions about place, identity and borders.
