Some have argued that the very ambiguity of critical geography is one of its chief strengths and that any attempt to define what is “critical” will inevitably result ...

They are very clearly mesmerized by it, and intone its name with the reverence of priests in the temple of an awesome god. It is not because power is a powerful concept, as I will argue below. Rather, it is because intellectuals crave power and yet can’t get their hands on much of it. So they study power, theorize power, anatomize power, all in the vain and alchemistic hope of some day possessing it. I’m using the title intellectual ...
