"With clarity and confidence, this vibrant volume summons up 'the social' in geography in ways that will excite students and scholars alike. Here the social is populated not only by society, but by culture, nature, economy and politics."
- Kay Anderson , University of Western Sydney
"This is a remarkable collection, full of intellectual gems. It not only summarises the field of social geography, and restates its importance, but also produces a manifesto for how the field should look in the future."

- Nigel Thrift
, Vice-Chancellor, University of Warwick

"The book aims to be accessible to students and specialists alike. Its success lies in emphasizing the crossovers between geography and social studies. The good editorial work is evident and the participating contributors are well-established scholars in their respective fields."
- Miron M. Denan
, Geography Research Forum

"An excellent handbook that will attract a diversity of readers. It will inspire undergraduate/postgraduate students and stimulate lecturers/researchers interested in the complexity and diversity of the social realm.... As the first of its kind in the sub-discipline, it is a book that is enjoyable to read and will definitely add value to a personal or library collection."

The social relations of difference - from race and class to gender and inequality - are at the heart of the concept of social geography. This handbook reconsiders and redirects research in the discipline while examining the changing ideas of individuals and their relationship with structures of power.

Organised into five sections, the SAGE Handbook of Social Geographies maps out the 'connections' anchored in social geography.
  • Difference and Diversity builds on enduring ideas of the structuring of social relations and examines the ruptures and rifts, and continuities and connections around social divisions.
  • Geographies and Social Economies rethinks the sociality, subjectivity and placement of money, markets, price and value.
  • Geographies of Wellbeing builds from a foundation of work on the spaces of fear, anxiety and disease towards newer concerns with geographies of health, resilience and contentment.
  • Geographies of Social Justice connects ideas through an examination of the possibilities and practicalities of normative theory and frames the central notion of Social geography, that things always could and should be different.
  • Doing Social Geography is not exploring the 'how to' of research, but rather the entanglement of it with practicalities, moralities, and politics.


This will be an essential resource for academics, researchers, practitioners and postgraduates across human geography.

Autorenporträt
Susan J Smith was appointed to the Ogilvie Chair of Geography at the University of Edinburgh in 1990, and moved to the University of Durham in 2004. She is a social geographer whose work is concerned with all kinds of injustice and inequality. She has contributed to debates on citizenship and social policy, the problems of racism and gender inequality, the indignity of victimisation and fear of crime, and the intractable link between housing and health. She has published 8 books and more than 80 articles on these themes. Currently she is interested in the diverse moral economies caught between the neo-liberal performance of markets and an emergent ethics of care. Rachel Pain began her career at the University of Northumbria and moved to the University of Durham in 2000, where she is a Senior Lecturer in Human Geography. Her research interests include crime, community safety and fear; gender, old age, youth and intergenerationality; qualitative and participatory methods. Her research has been funded by a wide range of organisations and she has published widely in these areas. Sallie A. Marston is Professor of Geography and Regional Development at the University of Arizona. Her research interests centre on socio-spatial theory and particularly on the construction of social difference, the state, and access to political resources in U.S. cities. She is an award-winning author of two undergraduate textbooks in human and world regional geography and has published 5 co-edited books and more than 60 articles on the themes of citizenship, urban politics, scale, and social reproduction. She is currently working on a book that explores the construction of legal frameworks that exclude lesbian, gays, bisexual and transgendered people from access to public space during national day celebrations.
