abstract |
This article is unapologetically polemical. As a busy academic who tries to keep up
with developments in social theory I feel the need to make a brief, but impassioned
plea for "Time Out". Over the past decade or so human geographers have been subjected
to a dazzling array of theoretical frameworks drawn largely from outside the discipline.
This rapid turnover is in part a cause and effect of a wider malaise centring on the
commodification of knowledge. It must be stressed at the outset that I am not demeaning
the process of critical self-examination, theoretical endeavour and political action,
but I am concerned with the rapidity with which ideas are superseded. |
