Document Summary
Jge331 lecture 10: mapping and counter-mapping: cartographics of territorial. Mapping resources is a way of representing and communicating their location and distribution, serving as a technology and practice of geographical knowledge and representation, and thus as a tool of both exploitation and management. Mapping resources typically situates resources in relation to existing cartographies of power, including state territories as well as territorialized property rights. Mapping may pre-figure or enable exploitationremember that representation and intervention are entangled. Sometimes some forms of representation are caught up in intervention and transformation. Mapping tends to reflect and reinforces specific power relations and ways of representing the spatiality of human and non-human relationships. If those perspectives on spatiality of human and non-human relationships are contested; mapping can be caught up in ways of contesting, can some instances be a technique or technology of settling those disputes.
