Politics and Practice in Economic Geography explains and interrogates these fundamental issues of research practice in the discipline. Concerned with examining the methodological challenges associated with that ′cultural turn′, the text explains and discusses: *qualitative and ethnographic methodologies *the role and significance of quantitative and numerical methods *the methodological implications of both post-structural and feminist theories *the use of case-study approaches the methodological relation between the economic geography and neoclassical economics, economic sociology, and economic anthropology.
