METROPOLIS AND REGION IN THE NEW POLITICAL GEOGRAPHY OF EUROPE: A BIRMINGHAM PERSPECTIVE

Geoffrey Parker



A geographical " perspective " is a particular way of looking at the world. It is the product of what is seen. and the meaning of it. What is seen, and the particular construction placed on what is seen, are of necessity intertwined since ideas arise out of physical - and geographical - experience. A Birmingham perspective is thus the product of where it is and what it is.
