Geopolitics The Struggle for Space and Power

"Geopolitik, the pseudo-science by which Hitler achieved and holds his power, acn be made to mean all things to all men. Today, it is more terrifying, if possible, than the Nazi war machine. A panzer division can be recognized for what it is, but Haushofer's global scheme of political strategy, which so neatly eliminates humanity from all its equations, has crept unnoticed, except by a few, far beyond the confines of the Reich. We must know how to recognize and combat this other enemy. " "What is the globl scheme of political strategy upon which the German high command has staked the fate of the world? Why did Germany attack Russia? Why has Russia not joined the war effort against Japan? The answer to these and many other crucial questions lies in Geopolitics - the conception of Karl Haushofer."
