"A comprehensive reader for my political geography course. Good summaries at the end, and articles include effective case study examples."- Rachel Paul, Western Washington University"A very useful and comprehensive introduction to key concepts in political geography. This book provides useful context not just for 'traditional' political geography modules, but also those examining broader issues of power, resistance and social movements."- Gavin Brown, University of Leicester"Vital for introducing basic concepts and terminology in a clear and concise fashion. The short chapters are accessible and well supplemented with pertinent examples."- Daniel Hammett, Sheffield University"I found the book to be very useful in a supplemental capacity, full of information that would be useful for an undergraduate or early graduate student."- Jason Dittmer, University College LondonThis textbook forms part of an innovative set of companion texts for the human geography subdisciplines. Organized around 20 short essays, Key Concepts in Political Geography provides a cutting-edge introduction to the central concepts that define contemporary research in the field.
