21st century, geopolitical reconfiguration: and the geopolitics of hope? – Pedro Sánchez Herráez
In a planet immersed in a powerful global reconfiguration, geopolitics, understood in its most classic sense, regains all its splendor. After a few decades, since the end of the Cold War, of apparent maintenance of the international system, the feeling is that everything is questioned and everything is blown up.
Geopolitics provides a series of responses to these facts, although perhaps it is necessary not to forget that, beyond—or at their origin—disputes over power and interests, there are people and societies, human groups that, through a social contract, are linked to their governments and are progressively losing hope throughout the planet.
Although at different speeds and with different effects, this hopelessness, this lack of expectations for a better tomorrow – at the entrance to hell described by Dante was the sentence “Abandon all hope” – has a devastating effect on a planetary scale, which This leads to the fact that, perhaps, it should be considered as an element to be integrated to a greater degree in geopolitical analyses.
A reflection on this matter articulates this document.
