[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","This book explores the theoretical frameworks and explanatory models within contemporary human geography. It examines a multitude of approaches including Marxism, Actor-Network Theory, Assemblage Theory, Feminism, and Postcolonial Theory, among others. The authors aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of how these theories apply to geographical analysis and explanation. The book discusses the importance of relational thinking and causal mechanisms in developing mid-range theories that bridge the gap between abstract concepts and practical applications. It also addresses the role of geographical thought in understanding globalization and socio-spatial outcomes. This work is intended for scholars, students, and professionals interested in critical human geography, offering insights into the development of analytical geographies for public engagement and policy. The authors' goal is to engage readers in reflecting on the role of theory in explaining geographical phenomena and to encourage the use of these theories in broader social science contexts."]
