Course contents
The course will cover the geographical reconnaissance of modern thought and its conceptual tools. In particular, the political and economical nature of that thought will be analysed through a critical reflection of the concepts developed by geography, namely space, distance and direction, where they show more evidence: the map in its alleged scientific rigor.
