The article analyzes the impact of geopolitical factors on the conceptualization of national security in the globalization era. How does this impact differ from one type of state to another? The author holds that the trend toward the development of postindustrial societies in the contemporary world, which is living through a period of globalizing transformations, weakens the effect of geography-related factors on security. A question is raised of how sustainable this trend is; an attempt is also made to retrace factors contributing to the restoration of dominant influence of geopolitics in the way security is perceived in the states of the globalizing world.
