Economic Geographies integrates ideas of structure, agency, and practice to provide: A detailed overview of recent key debates in economic geography: from political-economy and Marxism to post-structuralism A explanation of the of relations between production, retail and consumption, governance and regulation A discussion of the economy in terms of circuits, flows, and spaces that systematically relates the material to the cultural. Economic Geographies is a systematic audit of related developments in economic geography and the social sciences: these include consumption; economy and nature; and culture.
Conceptualising Economies and Their Geographies Flows of Value, Circuits of Capital and Social Reproduction Flows of Materials, Transformations of Nature Flows of Knowledge, Circuits of Meaning Flows of People Spaces of Regulation and Governance Spaces of Production Spaces of Sale Spaces of Consumption, Meaning and Identities From Spaces of Pollution and Waste to Sustainable Spaces?
"Economic Geographies certainly reflects the diversity of contemporary economic geography and offers an integrated treatment of key debates and lines of inquiry in the discipline. As such, it provides another valuable road map for undergraduate students and researchers with an interest in the nature and scope of economic geography. It therefore complements the existing selection of readers and handbooks in this field." -- Andrew Currah "This book provides a detailed overview of recent key debates in economic geography, from political-economy and Marxism to post-structuralism, an explanation of hte relations between production, exchange and sale and consumption, governance and regulation, and a discussion of hte economy in terms of circuits, flows and spaces that systematically relates the material to the cultura. It is also a systematic audit and synthesis of related developments in economic geography and nature and culture." -- APADE
