 Do maps accurately and objectively present the information we expect them to portray, or are they instead colored by the political purposes of their makers? In the lively and well-illustrated Maps and Politics, Jeremy Black investigates this dangerous territory, arguing persuasively that the supposed "objectivity" of the map-making and map-using processes cannot be divorced from issues of the politics of representation. Using a wide variety of historical and contemporary examples, Black shows how maps have played, and continue to play, a major role in international and domestic politics.  192 pages - 6" x 9"
