 Geostrategy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As with all strategies, geostrategy is concerned with matching means to ends
Friedrich Ratzel and Rudolf Kjellén developed an organic state theory which laid the foundation for Germany's unique school of geostrategy.
Similarly, those who see the rise of economic issues in priority over security issues argue that geoeconomics is more relevant to the modern era than geostrategy.

Thus, focusing on the key players and properly assessing the terrain has to be the point of departure for the formulation of American geostrategy for the long-term management of America's Eurasian geopolitical interests.
In brief, for the United States, Eurasian geostrategy involves the purposeful management of geostrategically dynamic states and the careful handling of geopolitically catalytic states, in keeping with the twin interests of America in the short-term preservation of its unique global power and in the long-run transformation of it into increasingly institutionalized global cooperation.
Active geostrategic players are the states that have the capacity and the national will to exercise power or influence beyond their borders in order to alter -- to a degree that affects America's interests -- the existing geopolitical state of affairs.

 Iran equipped for atomic weapon
Geostrategy says the intelligence information asserts North Korea this year transferred components to Iran to assemble a plutonium-based nuclear warhead.
In late 2004, says Geostrategy, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps tested a command and control network that would permit a nuclear weapons warhead to be placed on an enhanced Shihab-3 intermediate-range missile.
Intelligence sources won't elaborate, but stress that the source is from a "hostile" state, a reference to either Iran or North Korea.

 AR15.COM :: Forums :: MARITIME GEOSTRATEGY & DEVELOPMENT OF CHINESE NAVY IN THE EARLY 21st CENTURY
Xu asserts that contemporary Chinese maritime geostrategy is powerfully informed by a tragic history in which “China’s rulers shut the door to the outside world [and] the sea.
Geostrategy represents a country’s effort in the world arena to use geographic orientation and principles to pursue and safeguard its national interests.2 Entering the twenty-first century, China’s geostrategic relationships, especially its maritime geostrategic relationships, are undergoing profound change.
When considering the geographical relationships between states in order to study a given state’s geostrategy, the state’s geographical position, comprehensive national power, and spaces separating it [from other powers can be seen to] constitute the essential elements of [its] geographic orientation and [to] have a fundamental influence on a nation-state’s development, strength, and prosperity.

 Space geostrategy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Geostrategy in space (also referred to as astrostrategy) deals with the strategic considerations of location and resources in outer space territory.
In essence, it is the study of the strategic application of resources to the geography of space.
Just as a coast is to the ocean, the atmosphere here is to space—Earth is the transition region between astrostrategy and geostrategy.

 PINR - China's Geostrategy: Playing a Waiting Game
Beijing attaches importance to the document, which, according to Director of the Foreign Affairs Office of the Ministry of National Defense Zhang Bangdong, is meant to make China's geostrategy transparent to the rest of the world and thereby foster trust and build confidence in China's peaceful intentions.
Neoconservative strategists in the Pentagon understand this; it is the basis of their judgment that Washington has a shrinking window of opportunity to retain a significant foothold in East and Southeast Asia.
China's "ruling party" is aware of and forthright about the country's present limitations and has formulated a plausible strategy of "active defense" to overcome them over the next two decades.

China's white paper on national defense presents a geostrategy that is consistent with the country's current behavior and that accords with its interests in its present period of development.
As it works through its geostrategy, Beijing increasingly relies on what it calls "military diplomacy" to advance towards its goals.
Beijing's white paper on national defense and its application of the geostrategy presented there to holding war games with Moscow indicate realism, rationality and political maturity and sophistication.

 Waters Flowing Eastward   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The new and complex international order, shaped by American hegemony and within which "the threat of war is off the table," is likely to be restricted to those parts of the world where American power has been reinforced by democratic sociopolitical systems and by elaborate external multilateral—but also American-dominated—frameworks.
However, a comprehensive and integrated geostrategy for Eurasia must also be based on recognition of the limits of America's effective power and the inevitable attrition over time of its scope.
A sustainable geostrategy must therefore distinguish between the short-run perspective (the next five or so years), the middle term (up to twenty or so years), and the long run (beyond twenty years).

 WorldNetDaily: CIA: Saudi Arabia will go nuclear
Like Egypt, it has missiles and a large army and is a candidate for an Islamic revolution similar to Iran's 1979 conflict that overnight turned the country from being a stable U.S. ally to a vicious enemy.
Geostrategy reported in June that the Saudi royal family has become alarmed by the prospect of its neighbors having a nuclear bomb and has been secretly obtaining help from Pakistan for its missile and nuclear program.
The CIA report envisioned Saudi Arabia as reducing its dependency on the United States and using nuclear weapons to bolster the kingdom's security.

Furthermore, using U.S. military and/or the threat of force is a rather unwieldy instrument for Geostrategy, and as such it is unlikely to indefinitely thwart some OPEC members from acting on their `internal discussions' regarding a switch to euros.
To understand US Geostrategy one needs to have a realistic appreciation of the importance of hydrocarbons, the phenomenon referred to as Peak Oil, and the importance of Iraq's oil reserves with respect to these issues.
Neoconservative Geostrategy is based upon the idea of a US "Global Empire" and therefore it could not be tolerated for any nations, be it France, Russia or China to gain control over 40 billion barrels of Iraqi oil, or for that oil be sold in the euro currency.

Any attempt, therefore, to direct long-term US geostrategy must take this information revolution, with all its associated unpredictability, into account.

 A geostrategy for Eurasia by Zbigniew Brzezinski
Moreover, without a viable strategic relationship with America, China is not likely to continue to attract the enormous foreign investment necessary for regional preeminence.
Similarly, without a Sino-American strategic accommodation as the eastern anchor of America's involvement in Eurasia, America will lack a geostrategy for mainland Asia, which win deprive America of a geostrategy for Eurasia as well.
Geostrategic success in that venture would be a fitting legacy to America's role as the first and only global superpower.

 PINR - Current Geostrategy in the South Caucasus
The geostrategic importance of the South Caucasus and the Caspian region as a corridor from Europe to Central Asia, as a bridgehead to control and pressure Iran, and also because of the energy resources and the war on terrorism, are the main reasons for the U.S. presence in the region.
The United States, with its heavy military involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan, and following the switch of Uzbekistan to the Russian camp, is apt to seek strong points in the Caucasian area in support of its global geostrategy.
The recent involvement of the United States might upset the precarious power balance in these regions, which has evolved after the disintegration of the Soviet Union.

 China: Its geostrategy and energy needs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Introduction- perspectives on China’s geostrategy Beginning in 1950, the communist government of China said that its goal in international politics is to promote peaceful relations with other states.
Therefore, its international conduct would always be governed by the “five principles of peaceful coexistence” which China defined to include: mutual nonaggression and mutual noninterference.
With these perspectives in mind, we now turn to a discussion of China’s geostrategy and energy needs in five regions of the world.

Yes, in big bureaucracies of the democratic West there are individuals who see the truth, but they cannot tell the truth publicly because this is the prerogative of the top of the bureaucratic hierarchy.
Not even once in its reports (the last two reports exceed 50 pages each) does the Pentagon say that “the People’s Republic” is a dictatorship, and hence the dictators can allocate ANY resources to the development of ANY weapons without anyone knowing about it except the dictators.
Actually, in geostrategy the Pentagon is 18 years behind China and, indeed, does not even understand its geostrategy.
