Éve Lacoste: Using Geography Strategically
The French geographer Éva LaCoste has passed away at the age of 96. He was known for his profound critique of political geography and its use as a tool for domination, emphasizing that the neutrality of geography is artificial and that it is a struggle that employs geographical tools to serve power or justice. His ideas were influenced by his experiences in Morocco and Algeria, and his viewpoints were linked to investigations into how the United States used napalm during the Vietnam War, documenting the destruction of dam bases while disguising them as natural disasters.
