Download or read book The Geography of Tourism and Recreation written by C. Michael Hall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-03-27 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highlighting the inter-relationships between tourism, leisure and recreation, this revised edition introduces growing theoretical debates (from geography and the wider social science arena) to assess how new conceptualizations of tourism and leisure are advancing knowledge and understanding. Underpinning this book is the concept of the evolving nature of geography and social science, and their role in leading the analysis of the leisure phenomenon as a living subject, which has recently seen significant contributions from the new cultural geographies of consumption and leisure. These developments are clearly introduced, giving readers new to the subject area bite-sized introductions to key issues. Whilst this third edition retains the successful format and structure of previous editions, making it attractive and user-friendly to students without being overwhelming, it is completely revised and redeveloped to accommodate new case studies, insights, summary points and learning objectives. It is the only book to systematically compare and contrast in a spatial context, tourism and recreation in relation to leisure time, and its encyclopaedic reference section provides an excellent resource for new students. Retaining a global focus, this edition now features a greater emphasis on North America, and investigates the importance of less developed countries and the critical issues surrounding inequality, exploitation, underdevelopment and globalization as powerful forces affecting tourism and leisure.

Book excerpt: This book not only introduces studies and recent contributions to geographers' expanding interest in how people spend their leisure time in space, but seeks to illustrate how recreation and tourism phenomenon are seemingly separate and yet integrated aspects of the wider leisure phenomenon. Each chapter offers a series of insights into how the geographer has approached the analysis of tourism and recreation. (Midwest).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Geographische Zeitschrift is an important forum for the ongoing theoretical and methodological debates in human geography. On the occasion of the IGU Congress 2004 in Glasgow, the editors have assembled a selection of articles which have appeared in the Geographische Zeitschrift in recent years. To make them available to a wider public they are now translated into English. In the selection of the contributions for this volume, the guiding principle was of variety as far as theoretical grounding, the objects of research and branches of human geography were concerned. Thus, it reflects the self-perception of the Geographische Zeitschrift and allows an insight into the ideas and innovative debates in German geography. Contents Eike W. Schamp: Editorial - Helmut Kluter: Space and Compatibility - Rolf Sternberg: Entrepreneurship research. The relevance of the region and tasks facing economic geography - Marc Boeckler: Culture, geography and the diacritical practice of Oriental entrepreneurs - Martina Neuburger: Smallholder vulnerability in degraded areas. The political ecology of pioneer frontier processes in Brazil.

Download or read book An Introduction to Political Geography written by Martin Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to Political Geography continues to provide a broad-based introduction to contemporary political geography for students following undergraduate degree courses in geography and related subjects. The text explores the full breadth of contemporary political geography, covering not only traditional concerns such as the state, geopolitics, electoral geography and nationalism; but also increasing important areas at the cutting-edge of political geography research including globalization, the geographies of regulation and governance, geographies of policy formulation and delivery, and themes at the intersection of political and cultural geography, including the politics of place consumption, landscapes of power, citizenship, identity politics and geographies of mobilization and resistance. This second edition builds on the strengths of the first. The main changes and enhancements are: four new chapters on: political geographies of globalization, geographies of empire, political geography and the environment and geopolitics and critical geopolitics significant updating and revision of the existing chapters to discuss key developments, drawing on recent academic contributions and political events new case studies, drawing on an increasing number of international and global examples additional boxes for key concepts and an enlarged glossary. As with the first edition, extensive use is made of case study examples, illustrations, explanatory boxes, guides to further reading and a glossary of key terms to present the material in an easily accessible manner. Through employment of these techniques this book introduces students to contributions from a range of social and political theories in the context of empirical case study examples. By providing a basic introduction to such concepts and pointing to pathways into more specialist material, this book serves both as a core text for first- and second- year courses in political geography, and as a resource alongside supplementary textbooks for more specialist third year courses.

This book was released on 2006-01-16 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The capabilities of modern technology are rapidly increasing, spurred on to a large extent by the tremendous advances in communications and computing. Automated vehicles and global wireless connections are some examples of these advances. In order to take advantage of such enhanced capabilities, our need to model and manipulate our knowledge of the geophysical world, using compatible representations, is also rapidly increasing. In response to this one fundamental issue of great concern in modern geographical research is how to most effectively capture the physical world around us in systems like geographical information systems (GIS). Making this task even more challenging is the fact that uncertainty plays a pervasive role in the representation, analysis and use of geospatial information. The types of uncertainty that appear in geospatial information systems are not the just simple randomness of observation, as in weather data, but are manifested in many other forms including imprecision, incompleteness and granularization. Describing the uncertainty of the boundaries of deserts and mountains clearly require different tools than those provided by probability theory. The multiplicity of modalities of uncertainty appearing in GIS requires a variety of formalisms to model these uncertainties. In light of this it is natural that fuzzy set theory has become a topic of intensive interest in many areas of geographical research and applications This volume, Fuzzy Modeling with Spatial Information for Geographic Problems, provides many stimulating examples of advances in geographical research based on approaches using fuzzy sets and related technologies.

Download or read book The Emerging Economic Geography in EU Accession Countries written by Peter Nijkamp and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2003. Since 1990, Central and Eastern European countries have experienced increased economic integration with the European Union. The spatial implications of this process have been little investigated so far. Have patterns of regional specialization and industrial concentration changed during the 1990s? How does regional specialization relate to economic performance? How has access to Western markets affected the regional wage structure? What types of regions are winners and what types of regions are losers? This book poses and answers such policy relevant questions. It is organized into three parts. The first introduces the main features of economic integration and transition processes in Central and Eastern Europe and discusses the theoretical and methodological framework of the research. The second part examines the cases of five countries: Bulgaria, Estonia, Hungary, Romania and Slovenia, and the final part includes three comparative analyses which explain the underlying factors that determine the changing patterns of location of manufacturing activity, the adjustment pattern of regional wages and adaptation processes in border regions in the five countries.
