Download or read book Cartography in France 1660 1848 written by Josef Konvitz and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French scientists, engineers, and public officials were responsible for the most important and distinctive innovations in cartography in eighteenth-century Europe. By expanding the analytical uses of maps, by establishing unprecedented standards of accuracy, and by nurturing institutional frameworks to sustain mapping projects over many years, the French contributed to one of the central concepts of modern times: that man, through direct observation and accumulated information can better understand and manage his affairs. Concentrating on how and why new concepts and techniques of making and using maps were introduced, Josef Konvitz skillfully traces the modernization of cartography during the French Enlightenment. The story he unfolds is not merely a narrative of who did what, but an analysis of how the map itself influenced attitudes toward the land and the consequent effects on planning and the development of resources. Throughout, Konvitz demonstrates the significant relationship between cartography and political, economic, and military life. He emphasizes efforts to enlarge the practical applications of maps in government and the impact of government policy on the evolution of cartography.

Download or read book The Geography of Post War France written by Hugh D. Clout and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-06-28 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Geography of Post-war France: A Social and Economic Approach focuses on some of the social and economic problems of post-war France and the various planning measures taken to remedy them. These planning measures are presented in the national framework with some help of selected regional examples. Particularly, seven areas of France of varying size (sometimes conforming to official regional boundaries, sometimes not) are chosen to illustrate planning problems such as urban expansion, revitalizing old industrial areas, introducing industry to the impoverished countryside, and managing remote rural areas to cater for future needs. This book will be helpful to sixth-form teachers and undergraduates in this field of interest.

Download or read book Geography Since the Second World War RLE Social Cultural Geography written by Ron Johnston and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-23 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discipline of geography has undergone much change and growth in recent years. With growth has come diversity. Before 1945 there were differences between countries in the emphases on subject matter and research approach, although these were all related closely to three main ‘models’ – French, German and American. Since then, the relative importance of French and German influences has declined substantially, including within their own national territories, and the Anglo-American model has grown to world dominance. With that model, however, there is no dominant point of view but rather a multiplicity of competing approaches. These various approaches have had a different reception in other parts of the world, reflecting the base of pre-1945 geographical scholarship, the goals of geographical work set by soceities and the nature of the international contacts. The result is substantial international diversity in the practice of geography. This authoritative volume provides much needed information to make them aware of current international trends.
