Every map is an argument. Every development index encodes a vision of what progress means. Geography is the subject that represents the world, and this book asks what those representations do to our knowledge of it.
30 For 30 TOK: IB Geography is the eighth book in the 30 For 30 TOK series, which pairs thirty IB diploma subject with thirty searching questions about the nature of the knowledge it produces. This volume focuses on the IB Geography course, asking questions about how geographical knowledge is constructed, whose perspectives it privileges, and what the tools of geography reveal and conceal about the world they claim to describe.
From the politics of map projections to the cultural assumptions embedded in development models, from the epistemology of fieldwork to the question of who bears responsibility when a natural hazard becomes a human disaster, the thirty questions in this book press on the assumptions that underlie both physical and human geography. Sample responses model what careful, critical engagement with geographical knowledge looks like in practice.
Designed for IB Geography students, teachers, TOK educators, and anyone interested in how the spatial organisation of the world is represented, contested, and constructed.
