About this book

Introduction

An entirely new text for students of political geography following in the footsteps of the author's highly successful Modern Political Geography. Unlike other texts in this field it takes a broad and inclusive view of its subject matter, a pluralist and humanistic approach, and combines coverage of theory and empirical developments drawn from a wide range of countries throughout.
