While the world is fast-changing, this book helps us make sense of processes that will shape the future for decades to come. Giles Mohan, The Open University A must-read for anyone interested in understanding the global impacts of US-China rivalry. These extraordinarily rich and detailed case studies offer fascinating new insight into how states around the world are navigating the current era of growing geoeconomic competition. Kristen Hopewell, The University of British Columbia This path-breaking collection demonstrates how geopolitics and geopolitical power are decidedly grounded in geographical infrastructural projects such as pipes, railroads, freeways, satellite systems, and the like. Such infrastructures are strategic 'dispositifs' in current geopolitical struggles. A must read for those interested in how transformations in geopolitical power are fought over with steel and concrete as pivotal weapons. Erik Swyngedouw, The University of Manchester
