Answer 1. c.Intergovernmental bodies, NGO’s. Globalization of Trade, and Multinational Corporations
This is because after the dissolution of USSR, US started a project "A new american century" by experimenting globalisation. This included opening of trade and multinational companies to expand their operation overseas. NGOs were put to work for pursuading. Intergovernmental organisations which were largely under influence of US also contributed to geopolitics which is continuing to this day.

The geopolitical analysis of socio economic feature includes the historical perspective for the domination over energy resources in various part of the world as they are unevenly distributed. Almost all the world wars and after that cold war were fought for the sake of energy security and domination over mineral resources. Thus historic and nuclear cores are integral part of geopolitical analysis.
