Social Geography cover

Introducing the debates that inform current social geographic research and theory and interrogating the historical development of social geography, Social Geography: A Critical Introduction explores how urban and rural spaces are organized in ways that construct and maintain social inequality.

  • Puts into context the assumptions of various strains of social geographic thought as they have developed historically
  • Assists students in addressing key social geographic questions and methodologies
  • Provides a showcase for cutting edge work in the field
  • Is written in an accessible and lively style, setting out a wide breadth of social geographic research

"By not taking the well-trodden route of segmenting discussions of social geographies of gender, race, age, sex and so on, Del Casino is breaking the mould. He is offering something far superior ... [and] very accessible and student friendly." (Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, 2012)
