About this listen

Democratic Ideals and Reality, which was first published in 1919, represents a post-World War I worldview that would become the template for future geopolitical movements. As well as the UK, USA, and Europe, there is a focus on Russia, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa.

Some of Mackinder's predictions would come to pass later in the century with the outbreak of World War II and the political consequences this would bring in the aftermath.

Democratic Ideals and Reality offers the chance to take a look into the collective political psyche of the West after the First World War, and it is one of the few works that can be considered a true page of history.

This audio edition is unabridged and narrated expertly by Jonathan Keeble, giving it the gravitas a work like this deserves.
