Requests:  0 Summary:  "In this insightful geopolitical travelogue, Robert D. Kaplan turns his perceptive eye to a region that for centuries has been a meeting point of cultures, trade, and ideas. He undertakes a journey around the Adriatic Sea, through Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, and Greece, to reveal that far more is happening in the region than most news stories let on. Often overlooked, the Adriatic is in fact at the center of the most significant challenges of our time, including the rise of populist politics, the refugee crisis, and battles over the control of energy resources. And it is once again becoming a global trading hub that will determine Europes relationship with the rest of the world as China and Russia compete for dominance in its ports.... With a brilliant cross-pollination of history, literature, art, architecture, and current events, in Adriatic, Kaplan demonstrates that this unique region that exists at the intersection of civilizations holds revelatory truths for the future of global affairs."-- Publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909.09822 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 909.09822 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909.09822 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909.09822 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909.09822 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList
