The quantitative revolution in geography began in the 1950s with Schaefer's critique of the traditional regional geography approach. Schaefer argued geography should seek general patterns and laws across regions using quantitative methods rather than focusing on unique regions. This sparked a major transformation in the field toward spatial analysis and modeling using statistics, mathematics, and later computers. By the 1960s, the "new geography" focused on rigorous theory testing and had largely replaced the older descriptive regional approach. However, criticisms emerged in the 1970s that quantitative methods dehumanized geography and were unable to fully explain human spatial patterns. This led to the rise of qualitative approaches. While quantitative geography declined, it resurged in the 1990s with new spatial analysis techniques

Paradigm is just a way of your interpretation that how you interpret something. And geographic paradigms have changed time by time. In previous time we think of a one continent Pangea but now we are familiar with several. It is a long debate to discuss it in a detail. There is only one thing to learn from this slide is the development of knowledge and advancement in technology have changed our perspectives and assumption about the geographical land on which we are living. Change is absolute which take you on ride from one side of picture to other side. Then you have many paradigms of one picture.

let's learn about dichotomy and dualism. Dichotomy is a division or contrast between two things that are or are represented as being opposed or entirely different. It can also mean repeated branching into two equal parts1. For example, there is often a dichotomy between what politicians say and what they do. Hello, this is Bing. Dualism has different meanings depending on the context. In general, it is the division of something conceptually into two opposed or contrasted aspects, or the state of being so divided1. For example, in philosophy, dualism is a theory that considers reality to consist of two irreducible elements or modes, such as mind and matter2. In religion, dualism is the belief in two supreme opposed powers or gods, or sets of divine or demonic beings, that caused the world to exist3.

Quantitative Revolution in Geography
1. QUANTITATIVE REVOLUTION IN GEOGRAPHY/
GEOGRAPHY AS A SPATIAL ORGANISATION
Benjamin L Saitluanga
Asst. Prof., Geography
Govt. Saitual College,
Mizoram
Quantitative revolution or the view of geography as a study of spatial organization
started with the publication of Exceptionalism in geography:A method- by Schaefer. F
(1953) in Annals of the Association of American Geographers in which Schaefer
criticized the the chorologic viewpoints of Hartshorne and claimed that the view that
geography is an integrative science concerned with the unique was naive and arrogant
because such issues were common to many sciences. By refusing to search for
explanatory laws, geography condemned itself to what Schaefer called an immature
science. Rather than seeking idiographic regions, geographers should seek nomothetic
regularities across regions. This critique helped open the door to the rise of positivism
and the quantitative revolution.
After the 1950s, particularly after the Schaefer-Hartshorne debate, geography has
begun considered as a study of spatial organization or spatial interaction. The hitherto
dominant theme of geography, ‘areal differentiation’ has been abandoned by number of
geographers and there was a shift from areal to spatial, absolute space to relative space as
well as from areal integration to spatial interaction.
After the Schaefer-Hartshorne debate, space has become the basic organizing
concept of geographers. Here, space is not absolute (Euclidian) space which is only an
intellectual framework of phenomena, an abstract concept which does not exist in itself
independent of object as it has been in chorological science but relative space which is
the location of, and distance, between different phenomena in the spatial structure.
According to Schaefer, geography should be conceived as a science concerned
with the formulation of laws governing the spatial distribution of certain features on the
surface of the earth. In fact, spatial arrangement of phenomena, and not the phenomena
itself, are the ones that matter in geography.
Therefore, Schaefer, with his spatial organisation paradigm, initiated what may
be called the quantitative or theoretical revolution in geography. However, it was only
during the 1960s that the major advances towards a unifying methodological and
philosophical basis of the quantitative school or spatial science school were made mostly
through the works of renowned Anglo-American geographers like P, Haggett, R.J.
Chorley, W. Bunge and David Harvey (who later shifted his position and turned towards
Marxism).
2. The quantitative revolution is the profound intellectual transformation occurring in
Anglo-American geography beginning in the mid-1950s that followed from the use of
scientific forms of theorizing and statistical techniques of description and empirical
verification. In the process, an older regional geography concerned with describing,
cataloguing, and delineating unique places was pushed aside and replaced by the “new
geography” directed toward explaining, scientifically proving, and abstractly theorizing
spatial phenomena and relations.
The new geography that emerged, and that was solidified by the mid-1960s, was
characterized by several features.
• A thirst for rigorous formal theory and borrowing, and stealing of theories from at least
five sources outside of geography. First, Newtonian physics provided ideas of gravity and
potential as well as the basis for spatial interaction modeling, that is, the analysis of
geographic flows of people and things. Second, neoclassical economics gave the
rationality postulate used to theorize geographic choice. Third, an older and hitherto
forgotten German school of location theory offered mathematically exact models of
agricultural land use, industrial location, and urban–economic settlement patterns. Fourth,
urban sociology afforded both intra- and inter-metropolitan explanatory models of
population and their sociological characteristics. Fifth, geometry made available axioms
of topology (the mathematical study of spatial forms) used in transportation studies. More
generally, there was a belief that rigorous theory would reveal and explain an underlying
spatial order and, at the limit, could be couched as a series of geographic laws of the type
found in natural science.
• The use of an increasingly sophisticated set of statistical and mathematical methods. By
the mid-1960s, there was widespread use of complex multivariate inferential statistical
techniques.
• A reliance on computerization. The pioneers of the quantitative revolution were some of
the earliest users of computers in American universities. By the mid-1960s, the computer
was essential to the new geography.
• A new professional and social structure. Young, male, very ambitious, very able
graduate students and junior faculty primarily forged the quantitative revolution. In this
sense, the quantitative revolution was as much a social and institutional transformation as
an intellectual one.
• The emergence of an alternative philosophical justification for geographic research -
positivism. For the most part, early proponents of the quantitative revolution did not
understand their work in philosophical terms. By the end of the 1960s, however,
considerable philosophical reflection had gone on around the quantitative revolution’s
larger intellectual justification. David Harvey’s Explanation in Geography, published in
1969, was the culminating volume arguing that legitimating the quantitative revolution
was logical positivism, a philosophy averring that true statements were those—and only
those—in which logically consistent theory corresponded flawlessly to experientially
grounded facts. It was a far cry from the vision of geography as rote memorization.
3. Only 4 years later, however, Harvey launched a counterrevolution based on Marxism
that, within a decade or so, undid the quantifiers. Partly causing the quantitative
revolution’s fall was its inability to engage with pressing outside social and political
issues and writ large during the late 1960s and 1970s around poverty, civil rights, the
environment, war, and gender and racial equality. Partly also, there was a new generation
of geographers entering the discipline who, like the quantifiers of the mid-1950s, wanted
to make a distinctive mark. In their case, however, it was to be through social theory, not
scientific theory. The continuity of that noun—theory—was significant. It ensured that
human geography remained part of the social sciences, not lapsing back to the
netherworld status in which it languished before the quantitative revolution. This is
perhaps where the real revolution lay.
Criticism of Quantitative Revolution
By the 1970s, the quantitative revolution slowed and several of the prominent boosters of
quantitative methods began to reconsider the relevancy and legitimacy of quantitative
techniques because
1. Critics became disillusioned with the necessity to develop normative models that
explain human activity and tended to dehumanize geography.
2. Specifically, some individuals believed that the discipline was increasingly about
the models and decreasingly about understanding the meaning of everyday life or
describing different peoples and regions.
3. Statistics were incapable of describing or unlocking the mechanisms and
structures that created empirically observed differences between social groups,
genders, or regions.
4. For this reason, three prominent critiques emerged: structuralism, humanism, and
behavioralism. Structuralist geographers—many of them Marxists—recognized
that some socio-spatial relationships and observed conditions were the result of
the production process. Humanism sought to reposition humans and their
experiences at the center of the discipline in an attempt to unpack the meaning of
space, place, and region. Behavioralism was an attempt to insert people into
existing models by abandoning rational economizing principles of human
behavior and inserting the concept of bounded rationality and the satisficer. In
concert, these three dominant critiques—as well as the later emergence of
poststructuralist approaches—ushered in a legitimate collection of qualitative
research methodologies. In many respects, qualitative methods emerged as a
counter to the epistemological hegemony of the quantitative revolution.
Resurgence of Quantitative geography
During the 1990s, quantitative geography experienced a resurgence. The primary
motivation for the resurgence was the expansion of geotechnical applications, such as
4. geographic information systems (GIS), the Global Positioning System (GPS), and remote
sensing, and the growing dominance of geotechniques.
The new quantitative geography articulated spatially rigorous versions of traditional
techniques such as geographically weighted regression. Concomitantly, geographers were
arguing for more nuanced applications of established techniques, such as the expansion,
by placing quantitative methods within alternative epistemological frameworks.
Consequently, the simple quantitative/qualitative dichotomy that initially characterized
contemporary geographic research no longer exists. Today, geographers often use a
balanced mixture of intensive and extensive methodologies to explore the many facets of
everyday life. Indeed, geographers have adopted an approach that emphasizes the
complementarity of quantitative and qualitative approaches. In the future, quantitative
methods will continue to be used, become more spatially nuanced, and be more fully inte-
grated into the research regime.
