Synopsis

The intersection of postcolonial critical theory and the practice of geography necessitates the consideration of the rhetorics of place and identity, the spatial nature of cultural change, and the systems of power promoted by the discipline itself. Blunt (geography, U. of London, UK) and McEwan (human geography, U. of Birmingham, UK) present 12 papers that explore such topics as networks of knowledge in South Africa and elsewhere in the British Empire; citizenship and urban space in India and South Africa; and nationalism and identity.
