This book offers a sustained examination of the masculinism of contemporary geographical discourses.
Drawing on the work of feminist theories about the intersection of power, knowledge and subjectivity, different aspects of the discipline's masculinism are discussed in a series of essays which bring influential approaches in recent geography together with feminist accounts of the space of the everyday, the notion of a sense of place and views of landscape. In the final chapter, the spatial imagery of a variety of feminists is examined in order to argue that the geographical imagination implicit in feminist discussions of the politics of location is one example of a geography which does not deny difference in the name of a universal masculinity.媒体推荐'It's very personal, very courageous, and very challenging.'Derek Gregory, Professor of Geography at the University of British Columbia'.subtle and sophisticated.this is an important book.'The Geographical Journal'This is an important book in the development of feminist geography.'Geography'...
