RESUMO

This research aims to establish parameters of an area that was little studied by the geographical science, the military geography. The concept of the military geography is related to the historic aspect of each place and it is not related to an specific school of thought, not only to the school of geographical thought, but to the schools of martial thoughts, thus the central proposal is to improve and expand the theoretical and methodological frame of reference of the proper geographical science. This research aims to demonstrate the role of geography as a more concrete aspect of the war phenomenon, of logistics, of strategy and intelligence. The strategic themes, although less frequent in the Brazilian geographical research lately, are increasingly common in other areas of knowledge, especially among economists, administrators and certainly among political scientists. The importance of studying geography under these aspects allows us to detect if the evolution of this science influenced in the conceptions of tactic and strategy; the corresponding relationship between geo strategy and geopolitics; to analyze specific conflicts such as guerrilla, terrorism, nuclear war, the tactic war and confrontations of other natures. The military geography is related to the conduct of the military operations. On the other hand, geopolitics is more related to strategies because it is more ideological than practical, therefore the military geography is the practice that enables the strategy. Finally, we will analyze the new military geography employed by the new worldwide imperialism.
