在歐盟各國日益弱化消失、亞洲各國經濟快速崛起的當下 世界將重回歐亞大陸一統無邊界的「馬可孛羅世界」！ 全球百大思想家、國際權威級地緣政治專家 《西進的帝國》《歐洲暗影》《世界的盡頭》《地理的復仇》《南中國海》等書作者， 羅柏．卡普蘭2018年最新著作，精準預言二十一世紀世界全新局勢 當今西方世界最憂心忡忡的事，莫過於隨著歐盟內部動盪不穩，歐洲即將弱化消失，亞洲繼之而起，中國正挑戰美國，力圖成為世界第一強權。象徵著三十年戰爭結束、歐洲和平降臨的《西發里亞和約》體系中各國勢力開始衰弱老化，而昔日的傳奇亞洲帝國如俄羅斯、中國、伊朗、土耳其，相形之下變得舉足輕重起來。歐亞大陸從歐洲到中國的每一次危機，如今都變得牽一髮而動全身，世界已經變成一個單一戰場。 在歐洲，歐盟國家為了防堵穆斯林難民湧入，正忙著重新劃定自我保護的疆界，各國都充斥著民粹主義的呼聲，要求逐走外來移民。但這番自保的舉措正印證歐洲和非洲－歐亞大陸的命運是環環相扣，無法分割。世人所一貫認知的歐洲即將消失，「西方」也將失去實質的定義，西方文明將面臨相當大的危機。隨著歐洲的消失，歐亞融合了，在全球化、科技和地緣政治上的互動而言，歐亞即將形成一塊超級大陸。 離開歐洲，亞洲又是另一番光景。回顧人類歷史，十五至十七世紀是海權時代，十九至二十世紀是海權加上航空權的時代，至於兩次大戰中的關鍵就是掌握海權。但隨著一九九○年代冷戰結束，加上東亞經濟崛起、中亞政治板塊變革，傳統橫跨歐亞的絲綢之路重要性再度日增，重新成為各國霸權爭奪的嘴邊肉。 二十世紀初，英國地理學家麥金德（Halford...
