Although geopolitical practices have been put forth discursively at various production sites with the aim of supporting prevailing epistemologies, geography and politics still continue to be represented in rather contested ways in post-Soviet Estonia. The production of various texts and policy streams, maps and cartoons is a decentralised and un-coordinated process not subjected to a uniform geopolitical ideology. This article studies these processes and argues that post-Soviet Estonia is experimenting with various discursive practices that have led to unintended geopolitical consequences. Therefore, the focus of this paper is on the compatibility of geopolitical ideas produced at various levels and sites. It examines the roles of different agents in representing geography and politics and explains the context of geopolitical reasoning in post-Soviet Estonia
