Abstract
Geopolitics belongs to the group of social-geographical sciences and is a part of political geography. They distinguish between traditional, new (geo economics), and the latest (geo philosophy) geopolitics. Traditional geopolitics emphasizes the military-political power of the state and the dominant role of geographical factors in the conquest of foreign territories. The new (geo-economics) focuses on the economic power of the states in contrast to the traditional one. The latest geopolitics, in which spiritual power dominates military and economic power, helps states to overcome traditional and economic determinism at the expense of expanding the basic factors in determining behavior in international relations.
