Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in each area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.
This forward-thinking Research Agenda for Economic Geography: Reframing 21st Century Capitalism focuses on contemporary issues in globalization, platformization, climate change and geopolitics. Chapters analyse micro- and macro-economic processes and propose future research agendas.
An international range of contributors engage with the four aspects of the contemporary world that are critical to economic geographers: the evolution of capitalism, the future of globalisation, the ‘green’ transition, and advancements in technology. They provide new perspectives on climate change, state capitalism, geopolitics, financialization and supply chain diplomacy. This Research Agenda also explores the role of social inequalities in rising labor precarity, and demonstrates the crucial intersection between public health, geopolitics and global production. Drawing on international case studies, leading experts in the field discuss the global and comparative aspects of various economies.
A Research Agenda for Economic Geography: Reframing 21st Century Capitalism is an invaluable tool for students and professors in human geography, politics and economics. This book will also be an excellent resource for practitioners in the fields of economic and resource geography.
