The 21st Century Power Game: Power Lines: The New Rules of Geopolitics in a Fragmenting World

🌍 Power Lines: The New Rules of Geopolitics in a Fragmenting World
By Paarth Kumar

A world coming apart. A guide to understanding it.

From the South China Sea to the streets of Washington, from energy wars to AI races, the 21st century isn’t just chaotic—it’s geopolitical. Power Lines is your indispensable guide to decoding the headlines, connecting the dots, and understanding the real forces reshaping our world.

🔹 Why are supply chains turning into battlegrounds?
🔹 How do climate, chips, and cables define modern power?
🔹 What’s really driving conflicts in Ukraine, Taiwan, the Middle East, and Africa?
🔹 Who controls the story—and why narrative is the new weapon?

With sharp insights, vivid case studies, and a clear, accessible voice, this book explores the new rules of global power—where trade is weaponized, borders are back, and influence travels through algorithms as much as armies.

Inside, you'll discover:

• The geography of conflict—why maps still matter
• China’s playbook—from ports to platforms
• The tech cold war—chips, cyber, and the splinternet
• How empires rise, mutate, and fall in the modern era
• Why the Global South is no longer a spectator
• What the climate crisis means for borders, food, and survival
• How to read the signals of a world in transition
