Techno-Geopolitics; a pro classical geopolitics challenging critical approach

Geopolitics as a multidisciplinary view has been defined most succinctly as the relation of international political power to geographical setting, This definition has three principle conceptual components, the international system of states, political power and geography each of which has a significant relation to technology, this notion is initially based on the study of effects of geography on politics especially in an international scale, witnessed a post structural orientation with the idea –called critical geopolitics- that nation-states are not the only legitimate units of geopolitical analysis. But new technologies with their capabilities provided for states in shaping and reshaping the geographical environment and changing it into a dominant discourse, reveal as a pro classical geopolitics challenging the critical approach in this regard.
