As designações cidade e campo têm desde sempre inspirado múltiplas leituras em geografia e sociologia, passando-se de uma abordagem centrada na caracterização e na evolução do campo e da cidade para novas abordagens que, nas últimas três décadas, consideram a emergência de espaços marcados pela urbanização estruturada em torno da acessibilidade. Este livro apresenta um conjunto de onze contribuições centradas em temas da geografia, retratados nas realidades de Brasil e Portugal, destacando abordagens sobre conceitos e dicotomias que remetem à relação entre cidade e campo, assim como análises de aspectos diversos, como agricultura, turismo, transporte e mobilidade, segurança, políticas públicas e desafios para o desenvolvimento dos territórios em ambos países. Os capítulos permitem entender panoramas que decorrem de trajetórias distintas no que tange à relação entre campo e cidade. No caso da realidade europeia, em que a revolução industrial incentivou o maciço êxodo dos campos para as cidades; e no contexto brasileiro, cujos processos de urbanização assumiram uma natureza política muito forte, a industrialização como motor de crescimento das cidades constituiu-se um fator mais tardio.

Title in English: Moravian Karst and its Environs: Atlas for field work and outdoor activities. The atlas The Moravian Karst and its Environs includes an area which is used for outdoor activities by a number of schools not only from the Czech Republic, of all types and grades. The needs of fieldwork in the frame of teacher education at PdF MU were taken into consideration. The mission of the Atlas is to raise the desire to learn something new about processes which shaped and still shape the landscape of the Moravian Karst and its environs. The Atlas itself is composed of two parts. The first part is formed of thematically oriented maps with a scale of 1 : 160,000 and 1 : 400,000. It contains an overall overview of the chosen area and a description of its basic natural and cultural characteristics. The second part comprises detailed maps with a 1 : 20,000 scale which contain a huge amount of additional information. Its main goal is to support its users in their exploration of areas they choose from maps and thus help them to explore points of interest which are depicted by cartographic symbols.

Starting out as an economic geographer, Doreen Massey (1944-2016) made transformative methodological contributions both within and far beyond that field, shaping the ascendant project of feminist geography, influencing the discipline of geography as a whole, and impacting the wider worlds of social theory and progressive politics. Coming from a working-class background in the Northern British city of Manchester, Massey studied geography at Oxford and then regional science at the University of Pennsylvania. She spent the first part of her career at the Centre for Environmental Studies, a London-based think tank, before taking up the position of professor of geography at the Open University, where she worked until her (official) retirement. Along with Stuart Hall and Michael Rustin, Massey was a founding editor of the journal ...
