This brings together some of the most radical voices in geography to explore the interface of space, politics and identity in the formulation of a new cultural politics.
In the last two decades, new political subjects have been created through the actions of the new social movements; often by asserting the unfixed and `overdetermined'' character of identity. Further, in attempting to avoid essentialism, people have frequently looked to their territorial roots to establish their constituency. A cultural politics of resistance, as exemplified by Black politics, feminism, and gay liberation, has developed struggles to turn sites of oppression and discrimintion into spaces of resistance.
This book collects together perspectives which challenge received notions of geography; which are in danger of becoming anachronisms, without a language to articulate the new space of resistance, the new politics of identity.
