The end of the Cold War demonstrated the historical possibility of peaceful change and seemingly showed the superiority of non-realist approaches in International Relations. Yet in the post-Cold War period many European countries have experienced a resurgence of a distinctively realist tradition: geopolitics. Geopolitics is an approach which emphasizes the relationship between politics and power on the one hand; and territory, location and environment on the other. This comparative study shows how the revival of geopolitics came not despite, but because of, the end of the Cold War. Disoriented in their self-understandings and conception of external roles by the events of 1989, many European foreign policy actors used the determinism of geopolitical thought to find their place in world politics quickly. The book develops a constructivist methodology to study causal mechanisms and its comparative approach allows for a broad assessment of some of the fundamental dynamics of European security.

La question nationale est la principale clé de lecture de l'histoire géopolitique européenne au XIX e siècle. Proclamée par la Révolution française, l'idée de nation conduit à une confrontation avec les penseurs allemands (Fichte après Herder), qui culmine au sujet de l'appartenance de l'Alsace en 1870. Elle bouleverse la face du continent, simplifiant les cartes (Italie, Allemagne) ou les surchargeant (décombres des empires multinationaux). Longtemps progressiste avec le principe des nationalités, l'idée de nation montre par la suite un visage plus agressif. Tantôt elle sape les fondements de l'État (dans l'Autriche des Habsbourg), tantôt elle le seconde dans sa construction d'une nouvelle citoyenneté. Mais, face à certaines minorités et diasporas, elle est porteuse de sombres promesses, plus tard mises à exécution par la jeune Turquie puis l'Allemagne nazie. Ce livre, entièrement révisé pour cette nouvelle édition, montre que la nation tire sa force de son imbrication avec d'autres éléments de l'identité : l'histoire, la langue, la religion, voire les inégalités de développement. -- Quatrième de couverture

An unrepentant Nazi, Carl Schmitt remains one of the most divisive figures in twentieth century political thought. In recent years, his ideas have attracted a new and growing audience. This book seeks to cut through the controversy surrounding Schmitt to analyse his ideas on world order. In so doing, it takes on board Schmitt's critique of the condition of order in late modernity, and considers Schmitt's continued relevance. Consideration is given to the two devices Schmitt deploys, the Grossraum and the Partisan, and argues that neither concept lives up to its claim to transcend or reform Schmitt's pessimistic history of the state. The author concludes that Schmitt's continuing value lies in his provocative historical critique, rather than his conceptual innovation.
