Cultural Geography, and Representation of Women Across Editions of Introductory Human Geography Textbooks Through Content Analysis and Spatial EXPLORATIONS IN HISTORIOGRAPHIES OF GEOGRAPHICAL KNOWLEDGES by MATTHEW J. GERIKE A.B., University of Missouri, 2001 A.B., University of Missouri, 2001 M.A., Kansas State University, 2004 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Geography College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2012 Abstract Geographers, as part of their work as scholars and academics, continually “do” geography. Geography is practiced as research when tools, perspectives, and techniques are applied to problems or areas of study, exploring, understanding, and building geographical information. Geography is practiced as a social discipline when geographers interact with those around them, sharing geographical knowledge through writing, publishing, presenting, teaching, and discussion so others can read, listen, and engage. In doing geography – continuously practicing research and engaging in the documentation and communication of geographical knowledge – geographers also actively continuously construct the history of geography. These incidences, slides, and pages of knowledges are the foundation and structure of geography as a practiced discipline. Research explored the historiographies of geographical knowledges in presidential addresses of the Association of American Geographers, thematic conceptualizations of the subfield of cultural geography, and representation of women across editions of introductory human geography textbooks through content analysis and spatial. Conclusions strongly support the contention that geographic knowledges and the nature of geographic thought actively evolve as contemporary scholars practice their profession. By paying attention to these constructive processes and understanding their interactive role in it, geographers are better informed of the history of their specialty and their direct and vested role in the enterprise.

  • Theorizing Economic Geographies of Asia
    Theorizing Economic Geographies of Asia Henry Wai-chung Yeung Department of Geography, National University of Singapore (Email: [email protected]; Homepage: http://courses.nus.edu.sg/course/geoywc/henry.htm) and George C.S. Lin Department of Geography, University of Hong Kong (Email: [email protected]) A Paper Presented at the Canadian Association of Geographers Annual Conference, Toronto, Canada, 29 May – 1 June 2002. Acknowledgement Henry Yeung would like to thank Philip Kelly and Glen Norcliffe for their kind invitation to attend this conference. This paper originates from a special session in the 98th Annual Meeting of the Association of American Geographers, Los Angeles, 19 - 23 March 2002, and will be published as an introduction to a special issue on “Economic Geographies of Asia” in Economic Geography, Vol.79(3), 2003. We would like to thank Fulong Wu for co-organizing the session and all paper presenters for their participation and subsequent submission. We have received very useful comments from XXX. None of these institutions and individuals, however, should be responsible for any shortcomings of this paper. 14 May 2002 Theorizing Economic Geographies of Asia Abstract: The economic geographies of Asia are highly fascinating, not least because Asia has increasingly emerged as a significant economic player in all three spheres of global competition: production, consumption, and circulation. This dynamic mosaic of economic landscapes in Asia is further complicated during and after the recent 1997/1998 economic crisis. While some aspects of these economic geographies of Asia have already received research attention, many complex economic-geographical processes in Asia have been under- theorized in the literature.

  • My Gunnar Olsson
    1 Chapter 16 1 2 2 3 My Gunnar Olsson 3 4 4 5 Trevor Barnes 5 6 6 7 7 8 8 9 9 10 I first heard Gunnar Olsson speak at the Department of Geography, University 10 11 College London (UCL), as a third year undergraduate in the spring of 1978. In my 11 12 last year, I would sneak into Departmental seminars supposedly reserved for staff 12 13 and post-graduates. I remember seeing Ray Pahl and Alan Baker present, both of 13 14 whom I read and were excited about, but who in seminar mode were rather dull 14 15 and dry. Then just before Finals, I saw that Olsson was speaking. I knew I should 15 16 study for my exams, but Olsson already interested me. Earlier in the same year 16 17 in a philosophy and methods seminar, a post-graduate student dressed up as a 17 18 bus conductor declaimed to the class selected passages from a dog-eared copy of 18 19 Olsson’s (1975) Birds in Egg. He said the passages proved the end of causality. I 19 20 wasn’t so sure, but I wanted more, and which is what I got that spring day when 20 21 Olsson came to UCL. 21 22 Olsson was in the process of making a slow farewell tour back to Sweden 22 23 to take up a position at Nordplan, Stockholm. For the previous ten years he was 23 24 in America teaching at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Alan Gilbert 24 25 introduced him at UCL.

[email protected] Office hours: Tues. noon-2.00pm, Thurs. noon -2.00pm, and by appointment Course Prospectus Spring 2010 Geography 318 addresses ontological and epistemological aspects of explanation in geography. We examine explanation from the standpoint of various philosophies of science, reviewing dominant explanatory forms, as well as alternatives, such as those from the positions of positivism, phenomenology, structuralism, realism, Marxism, postmodernism and feminism. We also try to improve basic graduate skills of writing, editing, oral presentation, argument. Geography 318 is one of the core classes in the Geography graduate program. You are expected to participate fully (including speaking frequently, clearly, coherently and audibly during discussion), do all the reading, and present effectively, coherently and precisely. Requirements: 1 short essay; one longer essay at the end of the semester; you will lead several class discussions; you will give a lecture. You will be graded on all these requirements. Discussions with numbers (eg 3A) are led by members of the class. Text: R.
