Place of Geography by Tim Unwin
"" "The Place of Geography" discusses the relationships between geography, science and society and thus with the place of geography as an academic discipline within the social context of capitalist societies."The Place of Geography" is designed to provide a readable and yet challenging account of the emergence of gepgraphy as an academic discipline. It has three particular aims: it seeks to trace the development of geography back to its formal roots in classical antiquity; provides an interpretation of the changes that have taken place in geographical practice within the context of Jurgen Haberma's critical theory; and thirdly, describes how the increasing separation of geography into physical and human parts has been detrimental to our understanding of critical issues concerning the relationship between people and environment. |
