The main goal of the article is to highlight the marked difference between two understandings of geopolitics and space in general the understanding that is present in the field of geography and the understanding that is present in the field of International Relations. Whereas in International Relations (namely in the case of neorealists) space is conceptualized as a material, objective entity, in the field of geography there has been a shift toward a conceptualization of space as an inter-subjective entity. It follows that in the case of neorealists there is some (usually unintentional) tendency to revive (neo)classical geopolitics, or at least some of its basic assumptions. On the other hand, contemporary geographers have adopted a boldly critical approach toward (neo)classical geopolitics. Geographers consider (neo)classical geopolitics as potentially dangerous because of its justification of the conflictual discourses prevailing in international politics. The question remains whether the geographical neglect of objective space does not undermine the ability of critical geopolitics to effectively intervene in practical political issues. Adapted from the source document.

Notion of Geopolitics has its historical path in a close interaction with International politics.Different phases denote the primacy of ideas of the time. This paper seeks to analyse this development of geopolitical thought with special emphasis to the significance of narrative,identity and discourse in critical geopolitics. Critical geopolitics contrary to classical theories do not offer objective and final truth but advocates a perspective consist of some ontologicalepistemological-methodology-axiology questions. This perspective is very crucial to understand the choices adopted by the nation states.
