Overview
The course focuses on the processes through which societies are reshaped and sustained across time and space. Central to the course is an understanding of structural societal transformations - economic, political and cultural - and how these are manifested spatially. Theories of spatial transformation provide tools for critical analysis of continuity and change, while theories of growth, stagnation, and decline enable a problematisation of the driving forces, limitations and alternative future directions that shape societal development. Particular emphasis is placed on understanding how global flows are translated, negotiated and anchored in concrete contexts.
