A Companion to Feminist Geography
A Companion to Feminist Geography captures the breadth and diversity of this vibrant and substantive field.
Shows how feminist geography has changed the landscape of geographical inquiry and knowledge since the 1970s. It explores the diverse literatures that comprise feminist geography today and showcases cutting-edge research by feminist geographers. The book charts emerging areas of scholarship, such as the body and the nation, and includes contributions from 50 leading international scholars in the field. Each chapter offers its own distinctive contribution.
"A kaleidoscopic presentation of the riches of feminist geography; revealing at every turn the breadth of its theoretical perspectives, the variety of its objects of inquiry, and the reach of its methodologies. At once poetic, polemical, and rigorous, A Companion to Feminist Geography cross-cuts contemporary feminist research at all scales with historiographies of feminist thought in the field. With chapters by a truly international group of authors, this anthology inscribes feminist geography at the heart of the discipline as it makes the vitality of geographic thought vivid, not only for other fields, but for a range of political movements as well." βCindi Katz, City University of New York
