출판사 서평

“[This is] a collection of articles not on Doreen Massey&'s work, but rather on how different scholars and activists, many of them Massey&'s colleagues and friends, have developed their own ideas informed by hers … Gathering together a bunch of colleagues, activists, artists and political figures, each contributor offers an overview of how their main concerns relate to, or have benefited from, Massey&'s concepts. For the scope and significance of her ideas seem to have been enormous; just think of the very different disciplines that have benefited from her spatial vision (take only the ones present in the book: political science, sociology, anthropology, and psychology, even the arts, not to mention the practice of politics itself) … Here we have a group of scholars … taking Massey&'s work in new and exciting directions, and we have eighteen excellent examples of how to do it.” (Antipode , 1 September 2013)
