Abstract
ABSTRACT This essay reflects on how Social Justice and the City remains important not only for introducing social justice and Marxism to geography, but also, and maybe perhaps especially, for its analysis of and attack on status quo theory (of which much justice theorizing was, and perhaps remains, a primary example).
期刊介绍:
The Scottish Geographical Journal is the learned publication of the Royal Scottish Geographical Society and is a continuation of the Scottish Geographical Magazine, first published in 1885. The Journal was relaunched in its present format in 1999. The Journal is international in outlook and publishes scholarly articles of original research from any branch of geography and on any part of the world, while at the same time maintaining a distinctive interest in and concern with issues relating to Scotland. “The Scottish Geographical Journal mixes physical and human geography in a way that no other international journal does. It deploys a long heritage of geography in Scotland to address the most pressing issues of today."
