Summary
Statements tying geography to destiny reflect a deterministic idea of politics arising from early theories of geopolitics. “Geography is destiny” captures the idea that certain geographical regions have strategic, economic, and political advantages. The epigraph also extends beyond states to the truism that not all individuals and communities have the same opportunity to have access to resources,1 to contribute to the global economy of innovation,2 and to benefit from the global cumulative wealth. In some areas, it is more self-evident that the benefit-sharing systems are “a kind of lottery where the luckiest individuals and populations participate and win a portion of the benefits and others, also in great need but without similar resources, are left out of the process completely.”3
