Reviews

[...] this collection comprehensively dissects the concept of space from the perspectives of the political body, the marketplace, the urban, and the rural. Provoking thought and inviting discussion, this energetic bricolage of essays is essential reading for students and scholars who engage with the topic of space broadly, and especially for those with a narrower focus on Latin America. - S.L. Kwosek, South Carolina State University USA, in CHOICE Vol. 57.10 2020
