The new popular geography and pursuit of the curious
ABSTRACT This review discusses the rise and nature of the ‘new popular geography', a genre exemplified by Vitali Vitaliev’s engaging new work Atlas of Geographical Curiosities. The attraction to ‘curious' places, along with remote, hidden and ‘off the map' places, is explored in the context of the growth of anxieties about surveillance and ‘placelessness’ as well as the emergence of mapping as a central social and personal technology. I also consider what such works mean for geography as an academic discipline. Over forthcoming decades, the new popular geography is well-placed to shape the meaning of geography and, hence, we must ask how academic geographers can respond and engage with this genre.
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."
