Who among the following stated that 'geopolitics was an example of the fallacy of single factor' in the international relations ?
Answer: C
It was Hans J. Morgenthau.
In Politics Among Nations, discussing the evaluation of national power, Morgenthau warns against 'the fallacy of the single factor', the error of making one element of power absolute. He gives geopolitics, which elevates geography into the determinant of national destiny, as an example, along with nationalism and militarism.
Kissinger, Colin Gray and Robert Jervis are later strategic thinkers; Gray in particular defended geopolitics rather than dismissing it as a fallacy.
