An Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool University Press website and the OAPEN library as part of the Opening the Future project with COPIM.Drawing on the rich personal archive of the geographer Josué de Castro, this book tells a new history of geography by following one of the twentieth century's most influential and creative Brazilian intellectuals from the estuarine city of Recife to the halls of the UN, the chambers of Brasília, and exile amid the political fervour of the universities of Paris in 1968. This is the first English language book on the absorbing life of Josué de Castro. It follows modern anticolonial geographical thought in formation, re-reading Castro's metabolic, humanist geography as the anchor of a utopian practice of freedom: the demand for a world without hunger. Starting from Castro's life and work, the book offers new takes on the history of nutrition, translation in geography, Brazilian modernist art and practice in post-war internationalism, the radical geographical intellectual, the problem of the region in the Brazilian Northeast, and the birth of political ecology and critical environmental thought. At once a biographical intellectual history and a work of geographical theory, this innovative book tells the story of 20th century geography from a new angle and in new company.

What are the connections between space, control and world view? The author answers this question using the concept of cognitive mapping, which he presents and discusses as a theoretical concept of social analysis and as an empirical means of research. Surveillance - so his thesis - makes the examination and control of worldviews possible and thus becomes a form of social orientation. At the same time, worldviews also provide a basis for understanding attitudes towards surveillance measures. Surveillance in this sense is not a product of modernity, but occurs in all historical epochs and serves the organization of reality. Space and spatial notions of the world are shaped by the environment and the experiences people have in it. Socio-spatial conceptions are the origin of discourses of surveillance and are in turn influenced by forms of control. Worldviews can be used to trace attitudes and surveillance and the orientation patterns behind them. This book deals with these interrelations using the concept of cognitive mapping. This concept analyses causes and effects and explains how they play an important role in processes of social exclusion/integration or the possibilities of identity formation. Welche Zusammenhänge bestehen zwischen Raum, Kontrolle und Weltbild? Der Autor beantwortet diese Frage anhand des Konzepts des cognitive mapping, das er als theoretisches Konzept der Gesellschaftsanalyse sowie als empirisches Mittel der Forschung vorstellt und diskutiert. Überwachung - so seine These - macht die Überprüfung und Kontrolle von Weltbildern möglich und wird damit zu einer Form gesellschaftlicher Orientierung. Zugleich bieten Weltbilder auch eine Grundlage für das Verständnis von Einstellungen zu Überwachungsmaßnahmen. Überwachung in diesem Sinne ist kein Produkt der Moderne, sondern kommt in allen historischen Epochen vor und dient der Organisation von Realität. Raum und räumliche Vorstellungen von der Welt werden von der Umwelt und den Erfahrungen geformt, die Menschen in ihnen machen. Sozial-räumliche Vorstellungen sind Ursprungvon Diskursen der Überwachung und werden im Gegenzug durch Formen der Kontrolle beeinflusst. Über Weltbilder lassen sich Einstellungen u Überwachung und den dahinterstehenden Orientierungsmustern nachvollziehen. Das vorliegende Buch beschäftigt sich mit diesen Zusammenhängen anhand des Konzepts des cognitive mapping. Mit diesem Konzept werden Ursachen und Wirkungen analysiert und es wird erklärt, wie diese bei Prozessen sozialer Ausgrenzung/ Integration oder den Möglichkeiten von Identitätsformation eine wichtige Rolle spielen.
