摘要
当前,人文地理学界存在着理论发展“各自为营”、缺乏互馈与融合的问题,极为缺乏一个不同领域和流派能够对理论的概念和如何发展理论展开讨论与反思的共同基础。基于此,新加坡国立大学杨伟聪教授的力著《地理学的理论和解释》(Theory and Explanation in Geography)承前启后,展开了对人文地理学当代主流理论的系统性梳理和批判性反思,并指明了未来理论建设方向。
Currently,in human geography,theories tend to stand alone,without sufficient dialogues with each other.It lacks a common base on which different sub-disciplines,theories and approaches could engage with each other and jointly discuss how to develop better theories for the whole discipline.Against this backdrop,Professor Henry Wai-Chung Yeung's new book Theory and Explanation in Geography offers a systematic review and a critical reflection of mainstream critical theories in human geography,and points to the direction for future theory advancement.
