Description
The Wiley-Blackwell Companion to Economic Geography presents students and researchers with a comprehensive overview of the field, put together by a prestigious editorial team, with contributions from an international cast of prominent scholars.
Offers a fully revised, expanded, and up-to-date overview, following the successful and highly regarded Companion to Economic Geography published by Blackwell a decade earlier, providing a comprehensive assessment of the field.
Takes a prospective as well as retrospective look at the field, reviewing recent developments, recurrent challenges, and emerging agendas.
Incorporates diverse perspectives (in terms of specialty, demography, and geography) of up-and-coming scholars, going beyond a focus on Anglo-American research.
Encourages authors and researchers to engage with and contextualise their situated perspectives.
Explores areas of overlap, dialogues, and (potential) engagement between economic geography and cognate disciplines.
