TL;DR: The authors examines political geography in terms of substantive themes such as nationalism and ethnic conflict, geopolitics, geographies of political and social movements, and competing theoretical perspectives such as spatial analysis, political, economic and postmodern.

TL;DR: The disturbances in the global economy induced by the US trade and budget deficits are widely recognised by economists, even if the precise causes and effects of these deficits remain a topic of debate as mentioned in this paper.
