This fact, however, might be expected by Luc Ferry, who argues for a connection between the racism and nature protection laws of the Third Reich. Ferry argues that a non‐anthropocentric approach to nature makes it easier to dehumanize humans so that a non‐anthropocentric environmental ethic can transform into racist environmentalism. Does this contemporary case vindicate Ferry? We argue that it does not. When the underlying theoretical foundations and historical conditions that gave rise to the racist environmentalist movements and the contemporary non‐anthropocentric environmental left are analyzed, quite different pictures emerge: one type of non‐anthropocentric environmentalism is racist, one type of anthropocentric environmentalism is racist, and one type of non‐anthropocentric environmentalism is not racist, meaning that any relation between a non‐anthropocentric approach to nature and dehumanizing the Other is more complex and historically contextual than Ferry allows.","PeriodicalId":431617,"journal":{"name":"Philosophy & Geography","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128182838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This started with the inception of race as a biological category. Cognitive values about race were concerned with the worth of distinctive taxonomic divisions, and political values about it were concerned with the moral, aesthetic, and political meanings of these human distinctions. The presence of cognitive and non‐cognitive values in contemporary social science concerning race is no less present or important. The role of racial politics is exposed in the debate over the nature of contemporary residential housing patterns, as well as in examinations of the methods and measures of segregation research. Such examinations uncover not only a sociology of the segregation studies, but also certain values about race and segregation. This leads us to richer explanations, given our public political desires, than we would have without those values.","PeriodicalId":431617,"journal":{"name":"Philosophy & Geography","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130075721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The specific concern of this essay is how, or if, local development administrators (equity planners), should use their discretionary powers to ensure that city officials and private developers promote and protect the interests of urban residents, particularly the poor and disadvantaged. The essay begins by discussing the alleged conflict said to exist between needy urban residents and the more secure urban taxpayers. The contrary views of equity planners are then reviewed, and the tensions within the neoconservative arguments are exposed and critiqued. Finally, the dispute between equity planners and neoconservatives is further explored by examining the dispute over the voucher system to address the problem of equal educational opportunity in urban communities.","PeriodicalId":431617,"journal":{"name":"Philosophy & Geography","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121841197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In radical philosophy, where imperialism is analyzed with some frequency, European expansion is the paradigm. This essay considers the nature and specificity of American imperialism, especially its racialization structures, diplomatic history, and geographic trajectory, from pre‐twentieth century “Amerasia” to present‐day Eurasia. The essay begins with an account of imperialism generally, one which is couched in language consistent with left‐liberalism but compatible with a more radical discourse. This account is then used throughout the rest of the essay to illumine, through consideration of US foreign policy, structures of American dominion in Latin America, the Pacific, and Asia—and subsequently Eurasia. The overall analytic and geographic portrait offers critical context for both philosophy of race, which tends to be domestically oriented, and just war theory, which tends to ignore wider structures of diplomatic domination.","PeriodicalId":431617,"journal":{"name":"Philosophy & Geography","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115232777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I argue that Foucault's archeology and genealogy are fundamentally determined by spatial, topological, geographical, and geometrical metaphors and concepts. This spatial dimension of genealogy is explicitly related to racism and the regimes that domesticate agents through the practices, institutions and ideologies of racialization. The second part offers a genealogical reading of US history and spatiality in terms of its racial institutions. I suggest that if we want to read the US geographies of topographies and cartographies of racism in a Foucauldian manner, then we must focus on plantations, ghettos, and prisons as the spaces‐institutions‐geographies that consolidated the racial matrix of US polity. My goal is to acculturate Foucauldian racial genealogy to the US racial matrix, and, conversely, to read US geo‐history in terms of racializing spatialities.","PeriodicalId":431617,"journal":{"name":"Philosophy & Geography","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128997785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Studies on gender, space, on gender and space (including gendered space), and the gender of space. Unlike genderized space, where biologically determined gender is a factor, gender of space is a symbolic genderization of space wherein three levels may be distinguished: 1) imagery, 2) iconography, 3) choreography. Gender of space is here illustrated by a rather unique case of a rich, behaviorally-relevant genderization of space in the Andes, where not only time and space and landscape are genderized, but also agricultural fields, village space, living space, and sacrificial space. Deriving from genderized agricultural space, people and people's offices are also genderized. Data are reported on ten different symbolic genders of people, all highly relevant (and sanctioned in case of deviation) in everyday behavior and in religious ritual. Thus, genderized space-deduced symbolic human gender creates a highly complicated choreography in a multitude of further genderized spaces.","PeriodicalId":431617,"journal":{"name":"Philosophy & Geography","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123707314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Malpas","doi":"10.1080/1090377032000114651","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/1090377032000114651","url":null,"abstract":"References to Heidegger appear only infrequently in Foucault’s work. Yet Heidegger is there both at the beginning of Foucault’s career—in the context of Foucault’s introduction to Ludwig Binswanger’s Dreams and Existence—and also towards the end—in a well-known late interview in which he tells us that, for him, “Heidegger was always ... the essential philosopher.” The question of the relation between Heidegger and Foucault is clearly an important one, and there are certainly a number of points at which their ideas may be thought to intersect, but, until recently, the question had not been the subject of any close examination. While a number of writers had made claims concerning the relationship, mostly arguing against the idea of any significant influence, little detailed work had been done. Stuart Elden’s book, Mapping the Present, goes a long way toward rectifying this omission. Although Elden’s work is not historical or biographical in focus—he does not attempt to track particular lines of influence as these may be documented in specific references or incidents—he nevertheless develops a reading of Heidegger and Foucault that allows us to see the work of these two thinkers as standing in very close proximity—so much so that the work of the one appears in certain significant respects to be almost a continuation, though with important differences, of the work of the other. Elden’s book comprises five chapters, of which three focus on Heidegger and two on Foucault. The discussion of Heidegger is organized along more or less chronological lines: chapter one deals with Being and Time; chapter two with the shifts in Heidegger’s thinking that occur in his engagement with Hölderlin and Nietzsche; chapter three with Heidegger’s essays on art and technology. The chapters on Foucault are arranged analytically rather than chronologically: chapter four takes up certain key ideas in Foucault’s work, notably the ideas of archaeology and genealogy, and of limit and power, recasting them in the light of the reading of Heidegger articulated in the preceding chapters; chapter five applies the analytical framework so developed to a number of Foucault’s own writings and to his account of modern disciplinary practice within the hospital, the prison and elsewhere.","PeriodicalId":431617,"journal":{"name":"Philosophy & Geography","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129219499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"No community without spectacle: A comment on Olwig's Landscape, Nature, and the Body Politic","authors":"Jonathan M. Smith","doi":"10.1080/1090377032000114705","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/1090377032000114705","url":null,"abstract":"It would be difficult to accurately summarize Olwig’s complex and rewarding book in short space. It is not at all difficult to summarize it with partial accuracy, however, so that is what I propose to do. I do this not only for the sake of brevity, but also because the intellectual impact of a book that permits a simple and partially accurate summary is so often an impact of the imperfect summary, and not of the book itself. So some of what I am about to say is directed not so much at Olwig’s book, as at statements that are likely to appear in coming years with Olwig’s book appended as a legitimizing footnote. Olwig basically posits two forms of landscape, what we might call the community form and the scenic form. In the community form, a landscape is a particular social order, a “historically constituted” system of persons and practices that gives shape to a particular piece of land. This is the landscape geographers most often study, because it represents the everyday political and economic arrangements of the community. To insider and outsider alike, experience of the community form of landscape is experience of the social order as complex and contingent, as diverse individuals and groups interacting through evolving, negotiated relations. The scenic form of landscape is a particular vista, or type of vista, that is thought to condense, epitomize, or represent a wide territory and the social order that occupies that territory. As the word scenery implies, such landscapes are more often extraordinary than typical, for they are presumed to manifest an essence that lies behind everyday appearances. As representations of the social order, scenic landscapes accomplish two things. By presenting an essential unity of scenery they obscure the actual diversity of persons and places in the social order that occupies that landscape. For instance, the great iconographic landscapes of the United States, preserved in national parks, present wild nature as a unifying American theme, while they obscure the diversity of everyday social, economic, and political life in America. By omitting from the scene representations of the intermediate institutions that stand between the individual and the state, scenic landscapes also, according to Olwig, aid centralization of political power.
