This chapter focuses on the relationship between non-representational theories (NRTs) and geography. It traces out some of the intellectual lineages of NRTs. The chapter explains the different ways that NRTs have had an impact on the discipline of geography and the extent of that impact. ‘New Cultural Geography’ emerged during the 1980s as a prominent approach to geographic research. Central to New Cultural Geography then was a specific attention to how culture is spatially constituted. The ‘Cultural Turn’ refers to “A set of intellectual developments that led to issues of culture becoming central in human geography since the late 1980s”. In some of the early introductions to NRTs written by Thrift New Cultural Geography formed a key target of critique and something that NRTs were variously articulated against. Post-structuralism is a name that is normally used to refer to a relatively diverse body of philosophical work that emerged during the 1960s in France.
