In this multifaceted exploration, Robert D. Kaplan, a geopolitical expert and bestselling author, takes readers on a journey through a region that has been a historical meeting point of cultures, trade, and ideas for centuries. The Adriatic Sea area is often overlooked, but Kaplan reveals that it plays a central role in some of the most significant challenges of our time, such as the rise of populist politics, the refugee crisis, and competition over energy resources. Additionally, it is becoming a key global trading hub, shaping Europe's relationships with China and Russia as they vie for dominance in its ports.
Drawing on his three decades of experience as a journalist in the region, Kaplan examines how the Adriatic has evolved and how its changing dynamics hold insights into the future of Europe. He argues that the era of populism is a symptom of the end of the age of nationalism, and Europe is returning to alignments reminiscent of the early modern era as distinctions between East and West blur within the Adriatic countries and across Europe.
Through a blend of history, literature, art, architecture, and current events, "Adriatic" offers a profound exploration of a region at the crossroads of civilizations, shedding light on the future of global affairs.
