Confines of Territory
Disputing the nature of the international in political geography
Political geography has paid scant attention to theorizing the international. But the changing nature of power, as manifested today in the rise of non-state actors and transnational flows, challenges a continuing focus on the international as the scale par excellence of world politics. Systematic thinking linking geographical scale and politics is fairly recent and has remained largely without critical scrutiny. Political problems and policies ha…
The work of networks
The "network" has gained widespread acceptance within economic geography as a metaphor for economic interaction. Consistent with a global production network (GPN) approach, extractive industries are deeply embedded in political structures, physical infrastructure, and environmental conditions. We advocate for a GPN framework that emphasizes the co-operation of multiple, differentiated networks at each stage of a production network. Furthermore, t…
The Wiley Blackwell Companion to Political Geography
The Wiley Blackwell Companion to Political Geography aims to account for the intellectual and worldly developments that have taken place in and around political geography in the last 10 years. Bringing together established names in the field as well as new scholars, it highlights provocative theoretical and conceptual debates on political geography from a range of global perspectives
Power of Place
Place and Politics
The first part of the book is concerned with developing the place perspective. Three dimensions of place are put forward: locale and sense of place describe the objective and subjective dimensions of local social arrangements within which political behaviour is realized; location refers to the impact of the ‘macro-order’, to the fact that a single place is one among many and that the social life of a place is embedded in theworkings of the state …
"Baja" Geopolítica
The recent global economic meltdown serves as a salutary reminder of the ways in which the world has become hostage to the activities of a range of agents whose activities have rarely figured in discussions about global geopolitics. One of the most controversial aspects has been the role of the Big Three creditrating agencies, whose informational leverage is the way in which have come to exercise authority not simply coercive power within the wor…
Arguing with Regions
Agnew J. A. Arguing with regions, Regional Studies . An analytical survey of how regions have entered into the arguments of the social sciences serves to highlight the uses and limitations of different understandings of regions and their various theoretical biases. It also provides a way of introducing the articles in the rest of this special issue. It considers how regions have come to be used as a classificatory device across the social science…
Space and Place
Slums, Ghettos, and Urban Marginality
Following the riots of 2005, many commentators were drawn to a comparison of Paris's "problem areas" with the U.S. urban ghetto. But are the poor suburbs of Paris truly akin to the Black ghetto of Chicago, the quintessential American city of sociological lore? Urban Outcasts makes a powerful case against the efficacy of the comparison. In so doing, however, the role of federal housing and highway policies is probably overstated relative to the Wa…

Geopolitics
"Geopolitics identifies and scrutinizes the central features of geopolitics from the sixteenth century to the present, paying close attention to its persisting conceptual underpinnings, novel turns and shifting impacts. The book focuses on four key concepts of the modern geographical imagination: visualizing the world as a whole; the definition of geographical areas as advanced or primitive; the notion of the state being the highest form of polit…
Mastering Space
For over two hundred years the domination of some countries by others has been intrinsic to international relations, with national economic and political strength viewed as essential to a nation's survival and global position. Mastering Space identifies the essential features of this "state-centredness" and suggests an optimistic alternative more in keeping with the contemporary post-Cold War climate. Drawing on recent geopolitical thinking, the …
Place and Politics in Modern Italy
How do the places where people live help structure and restructure their sociopolitical identities and interests? John A. Agnew presents a theoretical model that addresses the relation of place to politics and applies it to a series of case studies set in modern Italy
Global Political Geography beyond Geopolitics
Global political geography is undergoing a revival of scholarly interest after years of relative neglect. The three books under review provide a good cross-section of recent thinking, addressing three of its primary concerns: the role of geographical scale (local, regional, national, global, etc.) in establishing political identities; geopolitical practice as a form of power/knowledge; and shifts in the “mix” of geographical scales at which the w…

The Community Innovation Process
Previous research into the community innovation process has tended to emphasize either intercommunity information flows and imitation or local need and political factors. This paper presents a conceptualization incorporating both sets of factors and stressing, in particular, the distinction between community innovations supported by a central pro pagator and those adopted solely on the basis of local initiative. In empirical analysis the former a…

Hechter celkonscie alstrebas tiun celon. Unue, li prezentas du modelojn de nacia disvolvigo: disvastiga kaj interne kolon…
In-Migration Field Dynamics
Little research has been conducted into how urban in-migration fields evolve over time. This paper examines two particular aspects that have been discussed, geographical expansion and the progressive erosion of deviations from the distance-decay rule (decrease in the relative frequency of movement with increasing distance from the urban area), but places them in a more general theoretical context, presents an approach to measurement, and provides…
