内容説明

- Looking for a fresh approach to the study of Development Geography? - Bored with the traditional structure of most development texts? -Do you consider pressing topics such as gender, sustainable development, modernity-postmodernity as integral to a clear understanding of this field? -Want to learn or teach with the aid of a team of world-renowned development specialists? Geographies of Development is an innovative and comprehensive introductory textbook for undergraduate students of Development Geography and Development Studies. The aim is to move away from the traditional approach whereby topics such as agriculture, industry, urbanisation, trade and aid are dealt with separately. Rather, key topics such as development ideology, globalisation, modernity, gender, ethnicity, tourism, land degradation and environmental sustainability are integrated throughout the text. The theme of the book is that ideas concerning development have been many and varied, and have been highly contested, varying from time to time and from place to place.
