Trade Paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition. 378 Pages Indexed. Clean book with a near flawless interior text pages. Without social change, Geography would lack much of its relevance. Moreover, these struggles have inflected the quest for geographical knowledge with a sense not only of urgency but also hope. This book, intended for advanced undergraduate is an analysis of Geography's theoretical and practical concerns and an encounter with political struggles. It is a fresh approach to learning about Geographic Thought by showing how the discipline has been forever altered by the rise of progressive social struggles. This anthology presents introductory essays and features more than two dozen published works by leading scholars that articulate geographic thought to progressive social change. Each section is introduced with an explanation of how the pieces fit into the geographic work with the social struggles of parts of the world over the last half-century. This book aims to prompt debates over how social and geographical knowledges arise from the context of social struggles. It is unique not only in knowing Geographic Thought through its progressive political attachments, instead of through a series of abstract "isms", but in gathering together works by geographers as well as scholars in cognate fields, such as Nancy Fraser, Chantal Mouffe, Iris Marion Young, and Jack Kloppenberg, whose own engagements have proved lasting and influential. For researchers and students interested in the connections between informed work and the possibilities for bettering people's everyday lives, this book provides an innovative and compelling argument for why Geographic Thought is valuable and necessary.
