A Poststructuralist Approach to Geography’s Scientific Identity
Öz
A discipline questioning its own scientific identity
is a wished attitude. As an individual often reviews his/her own past, disciplines
trace the same path. Unlike the individual, the discipline questions how to
approximate and reflect the reality, in what proportion finds and solves the
problems, how to keep up with the scientific line drawn beforehand.
Geography, like every scientific discipline, is a
perspective offering viewpoints. These viewpoints become functional with the
modus operandi and approaches. In this study geography was covered from the
point of poststructuralist view. Poststructuralism generally stands against strict
divisions and does not see the social reality as single and unchangeable. The
approaches offering solutions to every ideological, economic and social issue
are not taken for granted. It emphasizes the important relation between the
reality and language. Considering the strict and unchangeable approaches
in geography’s past it is clear that poststructuralism has offered and will
offer new perspectives into geography.
