This is the first English language book on the absorbing life of Josue? de Castro. It follows modern anticolonial geographical thought in formation, re-reading Castro's metabolic, humanist geography as the anchor of a utopian practice of freedom: the demand for a world without hunger. Starting from Castro's life and work, the book offers new takes on the history of nutrition, translation in geography, Brazilian modernist art and practice in post-war internationalism, the radical geographical intellectual, the problem of the region in the Brazilian Northeast, and the birth of political ecology and critical environmental thought. At once a biographical intellectual history and a work of geographical theory, this innovative book tells the story of 20th century geography from a new angle and in new company. 410 0$aLiverpool Latin American Studies 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aFood supply 610 00$aParis 1968 610 00$aThe Northeast of Brazil 610 00$aHistory of geography 610 00$aAnti-colonial geography 610 00$aJosue? de Castro 610 00$aThe geography of hunger 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aFood supply. 676 $a338.1 700 $aDavies$b Archie$01265117 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910629273603321 996 $aA World Without Hunger$92966581 997 $aUNINA
