Abstract: | Economic Geography covers contributions by selected economic geographers whose purpose is to help explain the interconnection among all forces that trigger societal change, namely the ever-changing capitalist system. The contributors record changing foci and methodologies from the 1960–1980 period of quantitative economic geography, the 1980s interest in understanding how regimes of accumulation in a capitalist world construct spaces of uneven development, and how the 1990s literature was enriched by differing viewpoints and methodologies which were designed to understand the local effects of the global space economy. In the new century, the overwhelming response has been that of bridging gaps across ‘voices within the sub-discipline of Economic Geography’ in order to maximize our understanding of processes that shape our social, political and economic existence. Contributors also highlight what they see as the challenges for understanding contemporary issues, thus putting down markers for younger researchers to take the lead on. |
