Book excerpt: Social Geography Carries With It An Inherent Confusion. In The Popular Perception The Distinction Between Social And Cultural Geography Is Not Very Clear. The Term Social Phenomena Encompasses The Whole Framework Of Human Interaction With Environment, Leading To The Articulation Of Social Space By Diverse Human Groups In Different Ways. The End-Product Of Human Activity May Perceive In The Personality Of Regions; Each Pattern Acquiring Its Form Under The Over-Arching Influence Of Social Structure. Besides The Patterns, The Way The Social Phenomena Express Themselves In Space May Become A Cause Of Concern As Well. As Compared To The Other Branches Of Geography Social Geography Has A Certain Amount Of Recency. Social Geography, Like Its Parent Discipline, Is Primarily Concerned With Space. This Distribution Forms Our Pattern. Black Immigrants May Well Be Segregated In Particular Districts, Because Of Their Earning Power, White Attitudes, Political Decisions, Personal Preference, And So On. Given The Desire For A Problem-Oriented Approach, Social Problems And Their Aerial Concentration Must Be Identified.Undoubtedly, This Work Will Be Of Great Help To Students Of Higher Education Like M.A. And M.Phil. Besides The Teachers In The Field.

Download or read book Doing Gender, Doing Geography written by Saraswati Raju and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until the 1970s gender had been invisible in analyses of social space and place in the androcentric discipline of geography. While recent contributions to feminist geography have challenged this, in India the engagement of geographers with gender, by being conservative in its choice of focus and orthodox in methodology, has been unable to destabilise the established disciplinary order. However, with younger scholars becoming increasingly interested in studying gender in geography, novel and innovative methods that include combinations of quantitative and qualitative analyses, visual sources and in-depth case studies are being tried out and accepted in geography despite its masculine legacy. This pioneering study brings together Indian geographers’ contributions to understanding gender, and through them, seeks to enrich the discipline of geography. It engages with the recent ‘spatial turn’ in the social sciences, which has reclaimed the explanatory power of space and place in social theory that had been nearly lost to deconstructive postmodernist scholarship. The volume draws entirely from the Indian scholarship, showcasing contextualised knowledge production, but hopes to initiate a a dialogue with scholars elsewhere working with feminist methodologies.

Book excerpt: DID THE GREAT FLOOD OF INDIAN LEGEND ACTUALLY HAPPEN? WHY DID THE BUDDHA WALK TO SARNATH TO GIVE HIS FIRST SERMON? HOW DID THE EUROPEANS MAP INDIA? The history of any country begins with its geography. With sparkling wit and intelligence, Sanjeev Sanyal sets off to explore India and look at how the country’s history was shaped by, among other things, its rivers, mountains and cities. Traversing remote mountain passes, visiting ancient archaeological sites, crossing rivers in shaky boats and immersing himself in old records and manuscripts, he considers questions about Indian history that we rarely ask: Why do Indians call their country Bharat? How did the British build the railways across the subcontinent? Why was the world’s highest mountain named after George Everest? Moving from the geological beginnings of the subcontinent to present-day Gurgaon, Land of the Seven Rivers is riveting, wry and full of surprises. It is the most entertaining history of India you will ever read.

Download or read book Economic and Social Geography written by R. Knowles and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic and Social Geography reviews developments in the study of economic and social geography and brings together in a single volume work which is dispersed in many specialist textbooks. An attempt has been made to achieve a balance between oversimplification and over-elaboration, and to present essential concepts in a clear, concise manner. The book contains 25 chapters organized into five parts. Part One deals with the study of economic and social geography, including approaches to the study of human geography and environmental perception and behavior. Part Two on population geography covers topics such as population geography, population change, and population growth. Part Three on economic geography includes discussions of transportation, agriculture, and mineral resources. Part Four on settlement geography examines urbanization, the internal structure of towns and cities, and rural settlement. Part Five is devoted to urban and rural planning, problems of economic development, and resources. This book, together with its companion volume, Physical Geography Made Simple, should be of value to a variety of people. First, to those who are coming to academic geography for the first time, especially to those studying for GCE Advanced Level or ONC/OND examinations. It should also provide a concise introduction to first-year courses in further and higher education, including degree courses with a geography component, HNC/HND, and Certificate in Education courses.
