In the recording of a live online talk, Tim Marshall, award winning author of the best selling book, Prisoners of Geography, and a leading authority on foreign affairs, is in discussion with Dr Penelope Law (BRLSI) and an invited audience. Drawing on more than 25 years of reporting experience and time in the field covering some 30 countries and major conflicts, Tim answers key questions arising from his book. He explains why, despite continuous advances in civil and military technology, social media and the growth of identity politics, geography is still a major consideration in shedding light on world affairs.
