ABSTRACT
The current discussion of German geopolitical writings involves the names, outlook, and reputation of certain American geographers. It is the antithesis of voluntary cultural diversity, spontaneity, and respect for human rights and welfare that we find in the Nazi philosophy. Deeply disturbed by the rapid growth in Germany of the pseudo science of geopolitics and alarmed by its territorial theories and implications as displayed in widest panorama in the Zeitschrift Geopolitik. This chapter deals with rapidly developing and diverse human societies in relation to an earth of which have an ever-expanding knowledge. It is distinguished among recent monographs on the subject of geopolitics by the fact that its author demonstrates that he has read the German geographical and geopolitical writings which he analyzes. Geopolitics is simple and sure, but, as disclosed in German writings and policy, it is also illusion, mummery, an apology for theft. Scientific geography deepens the understanding.
