Sinopsis

This ambitious and original work is the first sustained attempt to integrate poststructuralist thought with critical human geography. Marcus DoelOs goal is to refound spatial science as a discipline integrated with the social and natural sciences_replete with human attributes of value, meaning, feeling, fearing and creating_and shaped by the Odiabolical artsO of thinkers such as Deleuze, Guattari, Baudrillard, Derrida, and Lyotard. The author draws out the inherent spatiality at the heart of postmodern and poststructuralist perspectives, fashioning a provocative account of the fundamental difference that space, place, context, and milieu make to how we understand and engage with the world. The bookOs goal of reshaping the nature and practice of geography will interest all critical geographers, and its ambitious theoretical agenda will make it essential reading across cultural studies, anthropology, sociology, and philosophy.
