Summary/Abstract: In spite of the fact that IR Theory has been under constant state of borrowing from Social Sciences and Economy, this marriage remains shallow and with marginal consequences. The main schools of thought in International Relations Theory (neorealism, liberalism, constructivism, etc.) usually no dot concern themselves with topography or theorizing about spatial proclivities. Our perspectives argues that the ongoing crisis between the Russian Federation and Ukraine can be viewed through the lenses of Evolutionary Economic Geography (EEG), an emerging synthesis trying to blend the evolutionary process in economy with the influence of geographical factors. Moreso, we conclude that the Ukranian condrunum may riple and bear consequences for the American pivot in Asia.
