Cultural Geography, GE 354 ZA

Fall Semester 2000.


 The ESU Undergraduate Catalogue says this class is about the “geography of people and their principal ways of life.” This fall we’ll be examining people and their ways of life all over the world. We’ll focus on some of the geographic ideas, issues and tools that have important impacts on the ways we see the world, including: the ways we humans adapt to our environments; how we continue to transform the earth; our “sense of place;” human movement, including urbanization and migration; how we tend to organize ourselves spatially; and how interdependence is becoming the most important feature of human activities.
If you’ve taken World Regional Geography, you’ll recognize some of the same themes this class will consider: region, location, movement, human-environment interactions, and globalization and interconnections. As we become ever closer to the rest of the work, and increasingly interdependent, geographic knowledge becomes more and more important.
