Symposium: Geographers and/in development Edited by David Simon

摘要

This deliberately provocative set of interventions arises from a session by the same name at the annual conference of the Association of American Geographers in Seattle on 14 April 2011 and reflects closely each panellist's contribution there. The session drew a large audience and generated such animated discussion in view of the topicality of the subject matter that we felt the issues deserved broader exposure among geographers. My thanks go to my coconvenor, Ed Carr, and the other panellists for providing such stimulating contributions and then delivering and editing their manuscripts rapidly.
