Krátky popis
- How can the colours of a map reinforce our biases?- What does a
postcolonial map of the world look like?- How do indigenous
communities use maps to argue for self-determination?A stunning,
thought-provoking exploration of how maps shape our understanding
of the world - featuring over 150 beautiful full-colour maps. ‘A
true genius of cartography . .&,nbsp,. Radical Cartography will
make you see maps, and, indeed, your place on the planet, with
fresh eyes’ – Daniel Immerwahr, author of How to Hide an EmpireMaps
are everywhere. They can change how cities are designed and how
rivers flow, how wars are fought and how land claims are settled,
how children learn about race and how colonialism becomes a habit
of mind.Maps don’t just show us information – they help construct
our world. Cartographer and historian William Rankin argues that
it’s time to reimagine what a map can be and how it can be used.
Maps are not neutral.They are innately political, defining how the
world is divided, what becomes visible and what stays hidden, and
whose voices are heard. Brimming with vibrant, radical maps created
by Rankin and by other cutting-edge mapmakers, Radical Cartography
challenges the map as a tool of the status quo. Changing our maps
can change the questions we ask, the answers we accept – and the
planet we build.
