CIVILIZATION, IDEOLOGY AND GEOPOLITICS AFTER THE FALL OF BISMARCK WITH WORLD WAR I ACTORS, USA AND RUSSIA

Summary/Abstract: Civilization, ideology and geopolitics (CIG) are three complementary and non-parallel concepts that provide an analytical and strategic alternative for states and for science while analyzing planning and forecasting the international relations. This is indeed a short and immediate conclusion about the paper but an acute statement with a high relevance. Usually theoretical complementarities are practices that are rarely used but the paper seeks to investigate and look deeper at the relationship of these concepts with each other and how they are related. However, these three concepts come to light right after 1890, when Bismarck falls from power, in that period there was an urgent call for the public opinion to get informed about the Reinsurance agreement between Germany, Austria-Hungary and Russia. The collapse of conservatism gave space to public opinion and this paper argues the emergence and implementation of the CIG. This paper is a part of my doctoral dissertation and in this paper the theories are presented shorter than in my doctoral thesis elaboration. This paper also briefly investigates and explores the cooperation of nations before the First World War occurred.
