GeoEconomics Body of Knowledge
A comprehensive, evolving repository of frameworks, research, and insights for navigating the new geoeconomic order
What is the GeoEconomics BoK?
The GeoEconomics Body of Knowledge (BoK) is a curated, member-driven repository of frameworks, research, case studies, and analytical tools designed to help professionals navigate the complex intersection of economics, geography, and politics.
Unlike traditional academic resources, the BoK is practical, actionable, and continuously updated by practitioners—investors, policymakers, corporate strategists, and researchers—who are actively shaping geoeconomic outcomes.
It is the collective intelligence of the mayaNomics Forum, distilled into accessible, usable knowledge.
