2/12/2023 0 Comments Geopolitics of world war iiiThe resulted conflict is a product not only of macropolitical variables such as the proliferation of left and right wing extremism or ill-conceived juridical instruments such as the infamous Treaty of Versailles but also of an intricate web of details that defined the lives of some of the key figures in the Third Reich and the Empire of Japan, the two main instigators of the conflict. The premises of this tragedy are extremely complex and vast. Few periods have had such a concentration of significant events for reshaping the geopolitical landscape and the redistribution of power on a global scale. September 1 st 1939 – September 2 nd 1945, the timeframe between the escalation of tensions, through the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany and the capitulation of Japan through the signing by Japanese foreign minister Mamoru Shigemitsu of the Japanese Instrument of Surrender, is arguably the most geopolitically active period in modern history, actively and continuously changing the balance of power, recycling the status quo and inexorably diverting world history towards our present day and further, towards an uncertain, multipolar future.
