Centre and Periphery: Spatial Variation in Politics (SAGE Focus Editions) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Centre and Periphery consists of ten essays in political geography by such distinguished contributors as Owen Lattimore, Paul Claval, Stein Rokkan and Jean Laponce. They apply the centre/periphery model to such topics as America′s place in the global system, regionalism in Italy, and the periphery as source of change. A substantial introduction and conclusion by Jean Gottmann provide a framework for these essays demonstrating the potential of the centre/periphery model for more fully integrating the political and geographical perspectives.

′The choice of centre and periphery as a theme around which to organize the papers is a happy one...All of these essays are preceded and followed by two thoughtful contributions by Professor Gottmann, who offers some challenging ideas concerning the nature of political geography and its relationship to politics.′ -- The Geographical Journal, Vol 148 (1982), Pt 1
