Seductions of Place
The seductiveness of touristed landscapes is simultaneously local and global, as travelled places are formed and reworked by the activities of diverse, mobile people, in their desires to experience situated, sensuous qualities of difference.

Creating Historic Open Space in Melaka
IN the city of Melaka, Malaysia, the world's largest traditional Chinese cemetery is becoming a historical park.

The site has been a burial ground for local Chinese since the sixteenth century, and, because land pressures have compelled the removal of similar cemeteries in China and elsewhere, Bukit China may be the…

China
Informed by a geographer's perspective, this text portrays a vast country where distance still acts as a major constraint on social interaction, where the population is so huge that demand for resources almost always outstrips supply, and where regional variations have produced a rich mosaic of human and physical characteristics. The author portrays the relatively unexplored world of everyday life in China by examining the exodus from countryside…
