This open access book is about socio-spatial theory in, and the
nature of, Nordic geography. From both historical and contemporary
perspectives, the book engages with theorisations of geography in
the Nordic countries. Including chapters by geographers from
Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, it reflects how
theories about the relations between the social and the spatial
have been developed, adopted and critiqued in Nordic human
geography in relation to a wide range of themes, concepts and
approaches. The book also traces institutional developments,
distinct geographical traditions and intellectual histories, as
well as authors' own experiences as geographers in and beyond the
Nordic area. The chapters together introduce and engage with
debates and discussions that permeate Nordic geography and allows
readers a glimpse of geographical thinking and the role of
socio-spatial theory in the Nordic countries. By providing insights
into how geographical ideas emerge, travel and are translated and
adapted in specific contexts, the book contributes to debates about
historical-geographical situatedness and theorisations of
geography.
