This document discusses postmodernism and its impact on geography. It defines postmodernism as rejecting absolutes and emphasizing subjectivity. Postmodernism emerged in the 1930s-1940s and gained prominence in the 1970s as a critique of modernism. In geography, postmodernism is characterized as a style, method, and epoch. It uses historical, stylistic, and theoretical approaches. While difficult to understand, postmodernism emphasizes difference, lack of conformity, and questions the nature of knowledge and truth. It has influenced geography to embrace complexity, uncertainty, and see relationships between physical and human systems.
Postmodern Geography
Postmodern geography emerged as a reaction to modernism and its emphasis on grand theories and rational explanations of human behavior and society. Postmodernism rejects the idea of objective truth and universal reason, instead emphasizing particular perspectives and pluralism. It first appeared in fields like architecture and literature before being incorporated into geography starting in the 1970s. Postmodern geographers reject meta-narratives and focus on specific contexts and differences in space. They also aim to restore the importance of geography by emphasizing how spatial factors shape social and economic processes. However, postmodern geography has been criticized for potentially promoting intellectual nihilism and for deemphasizing important concepts like social class.
Critical perspectives in human geography
Here are a few examples of influential human geographers and their approaches:
- David Harvey (marxist): Focuses on urbanization, globalization and capitalism. Examines how the dynamics of capitalism shape the built environment and social relations.
- Doreen Massey (feminist): Known for her work on space and place. Critiques dominant conceptualizations of these terms from a feminist perspective. Examines gender relations and power dynamics.
- Edward Said (post-colonial): Critiqued Orientalism and how the West constructs the East. His work influenced post-colonial theory and how we understand representations of other cultures.
- Michel Foucault (post-structural

Postmodernism became prevalent in human geography in the late 1980s. It rejects the notion of absolute truth and modernism's belief in objective truth, instead arguing that individual life experiences lead to personal truths that cannot be proven wrong. Postmodernism is a subjective approach that emphasizes differing individual values and beliefs over universal experiences. It was an critique of modernism and its rational, scientific thinking.
POST-MODERNISM in india and along asian countries
Postmodernism rejects modernity and established ideas and institutions. It believes in subjectivity over objectivity and rejects universal theories or "metanarratives". Postmodern geography emerged in the 1980s, influenced by postmodern thinkers who challenged the focus on order and objectivity in modernism. Key postmodern geographers like Edward Soja and David Harvey analyzed how postmodern ideas shaped new cultural and social landscapes in cities and society with a focus on pluralism and changing concepts of space. While initially controversial, postmodernism became an established part of geographic thought and analysis over the late 20th century.

It assesses Marxist historians' compatibility with 21st century historiography objectives, finding their approaches one-sided, lacking interdisciplinarity, and failing to consider local realities or act in the public interest. While some contributions exist, overall Marxist historiography is seen as incompatible with modern historiographic goals and principles. Rebuttals to the analysis are welcome.Th
This document discusses postmodernism and its implications for geography. Postmodernism emerged as a reaction against modernism and its notions of absolute truth, rationality, and objectivity. It emphasizes that truth is subjective and context-dependent. Postmodernism originated in the late 1950s and gained prominence in the 1970s as a critique of modernist thought. For geography, postmodernism challenges concepts like unified space and objective knowledge, instead stressing multiple perspectives and the social construction of space. The future of geography in the 21st century may involve taking a more postmodern approach that fosters curiosity, connects knowledge holistically, and helps understand complex real-world systems.
Post structuralism and postmodernism
Post-structuralism emerged in the late 1960s as a theoretical approach that questioned structuralism. It was influenced by French theorists including Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Jacques Lacan, Julia Kristeva, and Roland Barthes. These theorists revealed how language, concepts, and social structures depend on elements they seek to exclude. Derrida in particular showed how meaning is unstable and dependent on difference rather than a direct link between signifier and signified. Postmodernism built on post-structuralism by further questioning truth claims and grand narratives. Theorists examined how power shapes knowledge and marginalizes groups.

Color Composites and Image Classification.pptx
The document discusses color composites and image classification techniques in remote sensing. It describes natural color composites which resemble what the human eye would see, and false color composites which use non-visible bands to highlight different features. A standard false color composite is explained as using near-infrared in red, red in green, and green in blue. The document also summarizes supervised classification which uses training data to classify pixels into classes, and unsupervised classification which allows the computer to discover inherent groupings in the data without predefined classes.

1st Order Trend Surface Analysis is a statistical technique used in spatial analysis to model and understand linear trends or patterns in a dataset distributed across a geographic area. It involves fitting a simple, linear surface to the data points to provide insights into the overall trend present in the spatial distribution of the data. This analysis employs linear regression to model first-order, or linear, surface trends in geospatial datasets.

A weather map represents current weather conditions over a region. It shows six key elements: temperature, rainfall, atmospheric pressure, wind direction, wind speed, cloud cover, and humidity. Meteorological departments use weather maps to forecast weather by analyzing these elements. Maps use lines, symbols, and abbreviations to depict elements like pressure (isobars), winds, clouds, and precipitation. Interpreting daily weather maps involves examining features like areas of high and low pressure, wind patterns, cloud cover, rainfall amounts and distribution, sea conditions, and how temperatures compare to normal levels for that area.

Postmodernism emerged in reaction to modernism and lacks a clear definition or origin. It encompasses developments in many fields starting in the 1940s and peaking in the 1960s-1970s. Postmodernism rejects rationality and objectivity in favor of opinion and relative morality. It is characterized by embracing the absurdity of life, losing faith in authority, and feeling alienated from society. Postmodernism deliberately mixes styles while modernism rejected conventions. Some criticisms are that postmodernism is too narrow, subordinates truth to identity, is divisive, lacks self-criticism, and has no foundation.

This document discusses postmodernism in geography. It defines postmodernism as a theoretical approach that critiques modernism by rejecting the idea of absolute truth, instead believing that every person has their own truth. It identifies five components of postmodernism: as an object or era, an attitude, a style, a method, and an epoch located within the evolution of the global economy and geopolitics. Postmodernism in geography is characterized by ideas like there being no absolute truth, truth and error being synonymous, self-conceptualization, collective ownership, personal morality, all religions being valid, and emphasis on geo-social changes and issues like population growth and hunger.
SHABNAM JINNAT.pptx
This document discusses Postmodernism and its impact on geography. It begins by defining Postmodernism and distinguishing it from Modernism. Some key characteristics of Postmodernism include relativism, rejecting grand narratives, and skepticism of science. Postmodernism emerged in the 1970s and is marked by fragmentation, paradox, unreliable narrators, and self-reference in literature. In geography, Postmodernism led to a rejection of comprehensive theories and an emphasis on difference, context, and critique. While Postmodernism challenges conventional thinking, it also makes analysis more complex and does not always provide solutions. The document concludes by discussing the importance of understanding Postmodern thinking to analyze today's multicultural, multidimensional societies.
aman ppt on 21th geograhy.pptx
This document discusses geography in the 21st century. It notes that the 21st century spans from 2001 to 2100. Postmodernism, as characterized by rejection of modernism, has influenced geography since around 2000. David Harvey's concept of time-space compression articulated how space and time are compressed. Feminism also influenced geography, as seen in Nancy Duncan's work on destabilizing geographies of gender. Overall, geography in the 21st century is characterized by postmodernism, with subjective truths and non-binary, non-universal, and dynamic approaches rather than fixed structures.

In contrast, modernism started in the 19th-early 20th century, was influenced by World War I, and rejected realism. The document also discusses the importance of geography in the 21st century in developing a holistic understanding of links between physical and human systems and dealing with complexity in real world contexts.
contribution of mark jafferson.pptx
Mark Jefferson (1863-1949) was a prominent American geographer who served as the head of the geography department at Michigan State Normal College. He studied geography under William Morris Davis at Harvard University from 1897-1899 and emphasized the relationship between humans and the environment. Jefferson is known for developing the concept of the "primate city", where a country's largest city dominates not just in size but also influence, and for favoring indeterminism over determinism in geography by stressing human creativity over environmental determinism.

What's a worker’s market? Job quality and labour market tightnessLabour Market Information Council | Conseil de l’information sur le marché du travail
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.falcon-invoice-discounting-a-premier-investment-platform-for-superior-returns...

Ending stagnation: How to boost prosperity across Scotland
A toxic combination of 15 years of low growth, and four decades of high inequality, has left Britain poorer and falling behind its peers. Productivity growth is weak and public investment is low, while wages today are no higher than they were before the financial crisis. Britain needs a new economic strategy to lift itself out of stagnation.
Scotland is in many ways a microcosm of this challenge. It has become a hub for creative industries, is home to several world-class universities and a thriving community of businesses – strengths that need to be harness and leveraged. But it also has high levels of deprivation, with homelessness reaching a record high and nearly half a million people living in very deep poverty last year. Scotland won’t be truly thriving unless it finds ways to ensure that all its inhabitants benefit from growth and investment. This is the central challenge facing policy makers both in Holyrood and Westminster.
What should a new national economic strategy for Scotland include? What would the pursuit of stronger economic growth mean for local, national and UK-wide policy makers? How will economic change affect the jobs we do, the places we live and the businesses we work for? And what are the prospects for cities like Glasgow, and nations like Scotland, in rising to these challenges?

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.
