Description
Foundations of Geopolitics
By Aleksandr Dugan
Foundations of Geopolitics by Aleksandr Dugin is a widely discussed work examining a particular school of modern Russian geopolitical thought. It is frequently cited in academic, journalistic, and policy discussions seeking to understand how power, influence, culture, and geography are viewed within certain Russian strategic frameworks.
Rather than focusing on traditional military conquest alone, the book explores political alliances, cultural influence, information strategy, and long-term ideological positioning as tools of statecraft. These concepts are often referenced by analysts interpreting Russia’s posture toward NATO, Europe, and the broader global order.
While not an official policy document, Foundations of Geopolitics has been studied for its role in shaping nationalist and strategic discourse in Russia since the late 20th century. It remains relevant for readers interested in contemporary geopolitical tensions and their intellectual foundations.
