"A kaleidoscopic presentation of the riches of feminist geography; revealing at every turn the breadth of its theoretical perspectives, the variety of its objects of inquiry, and the reach of its methodologies. At once poetic, polemical, and rigorous, A Companion to Feminist Geography cross-cuts contemporary feminist research at all scales with historiographies of feminist thought in the field. With chapters by a truly international group of authors, this anthology inscribes feminist geography at the heart of the discipline as it makes the vitality of geographic thought vivid, not only for other fields, but for a range of political movements as well."
―Cindi Katz, City University of New York

Von der hinteren Coverseite

A Companion to Feminist Geography captures the breadth and diversity of this vibrant and substantive field. It shows how feminist geography has altered the landscape of geographical inquiry and knowledge since the 1970s, reframing fundamental approaches across a range of disciplines, including architecture, environmental studies, and geography. Further, it situates feminist geography within the context of geographical thought and within interdisciplinary feminist debates.

The Companion, featuring contributors from around the world, explores the diverse literatures that comprise feminist geography today, tracing the emergence of key debates in the field. The volume reflects the various sites and locations from which feminist geographical analysis is being produced; and it includes a systematic assessment of feminist contributions to major sub-fields in geography, covering both established subjects, such as labor, urban, and environmental geography, and emerging areas of scholarship, such as the body and the nation.
