Remaking Human Geography (RLE Social & Cultural Geography): Routledge Library Editions: Social and Cultural Geography

Editat de Audrey Kobayashi, Suzanne MacKenzie
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 dec 2013
This book highlights the increasingly important contribution of geographical theory to the understanding of social change, values, economic & political organization and ethical imperatives. As a cohesive collection of chapters from well-known geographers in Britain and North America, it reflects the aims of the contributors in striving to bridge the gap between the historical-materialist and humanist interpretations of human geography. The book deals with both the contemporary issues outlined above and the situation in which they emerge: industrial restructuring, planning, women’s issues, social and cultural practices and the landscape as context for social action.
