内容説明

The last two decades of quantitative and theoretical revolution in geography seem to have successfully questioned the centrality of the regional approach. This book, however, urges the case for reinstating regional geography as a contemporary and relevant methodology. Much interest has been shown in recent years in reviving, yet restructuring, the field of regional geography, an interest which the essays in this book review and propose ways for development. The essays divide into three sections. The first assesses traditional regional geography and its relevance to the study of contemporary situations; the second, the alternative approaches to world-systems analysis, diffusion and structuration theory. The book concludes by considering the potential of regional geography to interpret the structures within which society operates and its claim to remain at the core of the discipline.
