This volume contains contributions from twenty-four scholars concerning the significance and implications of the world’s borderlands in economic, political, and socio-cultural contexts. Together these essays explore the changing role of borders in a global world. Are borders increasingly irrelevant under conditions of globalization, or can a case be made to demonstrate their continuing importance at various levels of spatial activity? Situating itself within a growing border literature, Holding the Line argues that contemporary borders facilitate parallel processes of globalization and localization of political activity. As such, the essays adopt a holistic approach to understanding the impact of boundaries on both society and space. They demonstrate that any attempt to create a methodological and conceptual framework for the understanding of boundaries must be concerned with the process of bounding, rather than simply the means through which the physical lines of separation are delimited and demarcated. This approach renders the notion of a "borderless world" highly problematic, because the latter ignores the important and ongoing relationship between the functional role of borders in the bounding process, and the symbolic role of borders as imagined social, political, and economic constructions embedded within a geographical text. The changing characteristics of political boundaries during an era of globalization has become a great focus of interdisciplinary study, and this book will appeal to scholars of political geography, border studies, and international relations.

In this important work, Steven Hurst demonstrates how the much-criticized Bush administration dealt effectively and skillfully with the massive upheavals associated with the end of the Cold War and began to shape a coherent US foreign policy for the post-Cold War era. Using government documents and recently published memoirs of key policymakers, Hurst provides the most detailed account so far of the policymaking processes of the Bush administration. He provides new insights into those policy areas which have already received critical attention, including relations with the USSR and the Persian Gulf Crisis, as well as neglected fields such as US-Latin American relations. Finally, the author addresses the much-derided concept of the "New World Order." He demonstrates that far from being a meaningless phrase dreamed up by Bush during the Gulf Crisis, the New World Order actually represented a coherent strategy founded in American values and foreign policy tradition and forms a logical and sustainable basis for,US foreign policy in the post-Cold War era.

Now fully revised and brought up to date after the collapse of the Soviet empire and the end of the cold war, this third edition of a book that was already a modern classic has a foreword by Admiral of the Fleet Sir Julian Oswald.
