The volume is a critical enquiry into the ways in which space is imagined, represented as well as resisted in geopolitical struggles and in everyday life. It attempts this enquiry through a number of articles that examines these issues in Europe and Asia and touches upon the intricate interplay between the 'geo-economics of hope' and the 'geopolitics of fear'. The insertion of a hyphen between 'Euro' and 'Asia' underlines the importance of differentiating the concept from the overwhelmingly military strategic connotation of the term 'Eurasia' or Eurasia as a geo-strategic space. A hyphenated relationship between Europe and Asia underlines the necessity of understanding Euro-Asia as pre-dominantly a socio-economic as well as political-cultural space of continental proportions. This is also a reminder that both 'Asia' and 'Europe' are highly heterogeneous places sharing the same continent.
