Synopsis:

In the New World Order, where the bipolar influence of the Superpowers has been replaced by a global system in which conflicts range from the political and military through to the socioeconomic and environmental, such conflicts easily become flashpoints. This text is an atlas which provides a map and text describing and analyzing the situation, issues and present status for each of the major current and potential geopolitical flashpoints. Further reading is suggested in each instance.
