Bol Introduction to Cultural Geography examines how cultural geographers have approached the relationship between geography and culture through topics from house floor plans and international migration to colonialism and digital geographies. Drawing on perspectives from both the social sciences and humanities, the book demonstrates cultural geography’s relevance for interpreting our globalized world and our own lived experiences. Each chapter combines theoretical discussion with illustrative case studies that engage and clarify complex concepts. Introduction to Cultural Geography addresses topics that resonate with contemporary readers, including artificial intelligence, social media, and cultural politics. The book is organized around three sections. The first develops a conceptual framework for studying cultural geography and for working with its key concepts. The second examines how and where people make and claim place, focusing on four spheres where place-making is most pronounced. The third addresses well-established and emerging theoretical debates in cultural geography around topics like materialities, assemblages, and artificial intelligence. Written for undergraduate and graduate students in cultural geography, human geography, cultural studies, sociology, urban studies, and anthropology, Introduction to Cultural Geography presents complex ideas in accessible ways while providing depth for advanced study. Introduction to Cultural Geography makes the case for why thinking geographically about culture matters. Across its chapters, the book examines how cultural geographers have approached the relationship between geography and culture through topics from house floor plans and international migration to colonialism and digital geographies. The book’s first section develops a conceptual framework for studying cultural geography and its key concepts. From there, its chapters look at how and where people make and claim place across four spheres of our everyday lives: dwelling, moving, working, and playing. The book’s final section addresses debates around materialities, assemblages, and artificial intelligence. Each chapter pairs theoretical engagement with concrete examples that enable readers to apply key concepts to the world around them. Introduction to Cultural Geography: Features topics that resonate with students today, including artificial intelligence, social media, and contemporary cultural politics Presents complex ideas, theories and concepts in an accessible form Covers a wide range of themes such as tourism, memory and heritage, social movements, and pop culture with both historical and contemporary case studies Written with multiple audiences in mind, Introduction to Cultural Geography is a great resource for instructors and scholars seeking a current survey of theoretical debates and a compelling way to help students understand the world around them.
