Addresses both social and cultural geography in a single volume, authored and edited by leading authorities in the fields

The Companion to Social and Cultural Geography provides reliable and up-to-date coverage of both foundational topics and emerging themes within two vibrant and increasingly interconnected subdisciplines of geography. Building upon the Companion to Cultural Geography first published in 2013, editors Ishan Ashutosh and Jamie Winders offer an expertly curated collection of original essays with special emphasis on early-career scholars, geographers of color, and geographers from the Global South.

Organized thematically, the Companion opens with a series of "Global Dispatches" from cultural and social geographers working in different disciplines and locations, followed by explorations of key concepts in social and cultural geography such as identity, belonging, solidarity, inequalities, and intersectional geographies. Subsequent chapters examine a wide range of cultural and social geographies, including creativity, technologies, science, nature, memory, tourism, migration, labor, and religion. Throughout the Companion, authors share fresh insights into the racial reckonings of late, ongoing issues related to climate change, the consequences of COVID-19, and more.

Across its 46 chapters, the Companion to Social and Cultural Geography:



Examines how approaches to human-environment dynamics in social and cultural geography help shed light on current challenges
Covers critical topics such as justice, protest, borders, public health, urban planning, indigeneity, genders, class, race, and sexualities
Emphasizes the value of a geographic perspective to understanding social and cultural dynamics
Discusses how geography has confronted its deep connections to colonialism, imperialism, and white supremacy
Addresses a range of emerging and established themes, including queer and transgender geographies, Black geographies, animal geographies, and cultural geographies of states
Incorporates a diversity of writing styles, narratives, and analyses, such as interviews, conversations, short essays, autobiography, and autoethnography

Accessible, authoritative, and highly relevant to today's students, the Companion to Social and Cultural Geography is an essential textbook for undergraduate or graduate courses on social or cultural geography, cultural studies, cultural sociology, and ethnic studies.
