ian against an insurgent socialism. For this last group opposition to the war
became but one part of a more general, revolutionary political movement
aimed evcntually at the substitution of socialism for capitalism in the United
States. At the beginning of mass opposition to the war the revolutionaries
numbcrcd no more than a few thousand people. During and after the war,
individuals and small groups ofpcoplc broke off the issue-oriented liberal cam-
paigns (anti-war, environment, appropriate technology, tvomcn’s liberation,
consumers, etc.) and moved towards deeper, more philosophical, radical
politics. By the mid-1 §70s, revolutionary theory and action groups had become
quite common in the universities and in certain tenants’, minority and urrion
movcmcnts, and support had grown to several hundred thousand people.
The process of ‘brcaking off from liberalism was an extremely important
aspect of the wartime and post-Vietnam 1B’ar radicalization process in politics
in general, but also in the simultancously dcv-cloping radical movements ill
US science. ‘I3rcaking off involved, csscntially, a shift from one politico-scien-
tific paradigm to another. The starting point was the liberal political and social
scientific paradigm, based on the belief that societal problems can be solvcd,
or at least significandy ameliorated, within the context of a modified capital-
ism. A corollary of this bclicf is the advocacy of pragmatism-better to be
involved in partial solutions than in futile efforts at revolution. Radicalization
in the political arena involvcd, as its first step, rejecting the point of view that
one more policy change, one more ’new face’, would make any difference.
Radicalization in the social sciences involved a similar first step of rejecting
the notion that another squeeze of old theory, the grafting-on of yet anothcr
fragment of theory, or a dose of new mcthodology, would lead to dramatic
changes in the insights or results obtained. In both the gcrtcral political, and
the more particular academic case, systemic contradictions revealed them-
sclves in problems so deep and widesprcad as to put into serious question sup-
port of the current (policj’ or thcoretical~ efforts made to contain them. The
general state of societal contradiction generated a sequence of more particular
contradictions in the branches of scientific theory, which in turn set off con-
tradictions in the intellectual efforts of those individual immersed in, and act-
ing on k}eltalf of, those theories. The result, for thosc people able and willing
to recognize it, was a state of personal crisis, disenchantment, and disillu-
sionment with the existing political and scientific paradigms, a breaking-off
from lik~cralism and thus a state of potential radicalization.
But this experience did not automatically lead to an involvement in social-
ism, nor even a search for a deeper, more intcllcctually- and cmotionally satisfy-
ing bodyof theory. In the United States of tlie 960s and 19ïoS a numher
of conditions prevailed which made the achicvcmcnt of a positivc radicalism
extremely diflicult. For one thing, tlrc socialist tradition, quite strong in the
late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, had been all but destroyed by
state action and the prcvalencc of an apparcnt afllucncc which made the more
obvious aspects of socialism seem inapplicable. This same material affluence
was uscd to buy off acadcmics-that is, to involve them in research projects
which were pointless, by comparison with the rate at which social and environ-
mental problems were being formed, but which provided them, and their de-
pendent graduate students, with money, status and power. Finally, and most
important, it was necessary for potential radicals to explode their way through
the thick layers of ideology which in the most dangerous, mass-suicidal way,
protect late capitalism. One aspect of this ideological climate is the provision
of diversionary ’movements.’, of a consumer, religious or pseudo-political
nature, which arc especially effective in the absence of a strong, counteracting
socialist tradition. t111 this is to say that whilc the foundation of objective
conditions for the growth of radicalism was laid, and while there were highly
visihle signs of a suitable subjective reaction to these conditions, the develop-
ment of radicalism in the United States as a whole, in thc universities, and
in the particular field of geography, has been a long, difficult process. Those
who have become involved in the radical movcmcnt havc had to begin to
rc-cducatc themselves in the most fundamental way-that is to subject them-
sclvcs to a process of devastating self-criticism and to attempt to restructure
their minds, their personalities, their ways of rclating to other people and to
the external world. This has prevented many people from reaching a stage
of revolutionary consciousness, has retarded the growth of a truly radical
movement, and has even led to many diversions Zf’t~~ttlt the radical movement.
And yct it has also made Urlltcd States radicalism unique in certain respects,
making it humanistic and non-dogmatic compared with its European counter-
parts.
pations continued in various new guises, and the mood of the discipline gradu-
ally collapsed into a crotchety eclecticism, especially in the United States
where gcography had scarcely been established before changing conditions
undc:rcut its development. Then in the late 1950s in the United States, some-
what later clsewhcrc, spatial theory and scientific methods wcrc combined into
the ’new geography’ under the influence of society’s needs for spatial cfticieticy
and regional planning. Geographers responded to the call for spatial dccision-
makers like old soldicrs returning to a long-lost army. Geography was again
a functioning science.
Yet this very functionalism became a source of radicalization for certain
geographers. Many young academics moved rcadily into the well-hceled ranks
of ‘the quantifiers’. But other young geographers, propelled into a heightened
state of social awareness by the events of thc middle ig6os, noticed that thc
fine new methodology was being used only to analyse such socially ephemeral
matters as shopping behaviour and the location of service centres (Peet, rg72;
Smith, 1972). Out of the tension between the mundane focal interests of the
’new geography’ and the urgent need for social relevance and political invofve-
mcnt came the first stumbling moves towards a ’radical’ geography.
a ’Social relez~ancy’: By the middle to late 196os two strcams of thought domi-
nated human gcography: an old school, using traditional descriptive methods,
concerned itself with an esoteric variety of regional, environmental and eco-
nomic questions-the particular topic of inquiry depending more on quirk
of interest or convenience (’The goldfish industry of ~IartinsB’iUe, Indiana’,
etc.) than the urgency of the problem; and the ’new geography’, based
in location theory and using quantitative methods, but either focused on non-
vital issues (like the distribution ofccntral places) or obviously w-cddcd to in-
dtlstrial and commercial interests (the ’optimal’ location of industry, super-
market location, etc.). Rivalry· between the two groups, fear on the one side,
disdain on the other, and competition within the lattcr group (keeping up
with the latest technique), kept the field of geography in a perpetual state
of’dynamism’ (Hurst, 1973). And then the central cities of the United States
erupted and all over the world massivc anti-war marchcs began. The battle
cry became ’rclevancy’-which meant changing the topical focus of the disci-
pliiie yct retaining the existing research methodology. From ig67 onwards
meetings were held at Association of American Geographers’ conventions urg-
ing a more relevant geography (similar meetings were held by the Institute
of British Geographers) and from the middle sixties papers began to
appear in thc journals dealing with the obviously geographic aspects of social
issucs-in particular the location and expansion of the black ghetto in North
American cities (inlorrill, t966; All>aum, 1973),
‘Radical’ geography was the left-liberal wing of this movement. Early· issues
of Antipode dealt with urban and regional poverty, minority groups, access to
social services and similar questions. However, in common with the ’new geo-
graphy’, radicals investigated only the surface aspects of these questions-that
is, how social problems were manifested in space. For this, either w-c found
the conventional methodology adequate enough or we proposcd only that
’existing methods of research must be modified to some extent if they are to
serve the analytic and rcconstructive purposes of radical applications’
...
(~1’isner, 1970, 1 ). The result was a geography more relcvant to social issues
but still tied to a philosophy of science, a set of theories, and a mcthodology
developed lvithill the existing framework of power relationships. There was,
for example, little difference between the pages of early issues of Antipode and
a report on a symposium on ’Geographical Perspectives and Urban Problems’

and practice.
ing ’efficicncy’. In Harvey·’s paper we can see an carty recognition of the rlced
to escape from the net of assumptions inherent in the existing theories. Yet,
as he later recognized (1973, 14), separating social justice from the context
of material events and interests which give meaning to the concept, and pro-
posing social justicc as something desirable according to an arbitrarily dccidcd-
upon morality, was not a very solid way of beginning alternative theory. In-
deed, like all theories built on w-cak foundations, Harvey’s paper on social
justice contained its own contradiction-a reference to the marxian attack on
separating the question of thc distribution of the social product from an analy-
sis of the mechanisms ofsocial production (Harvey, 1972a, 97). We shall see
later how this contradiction workcd its way out in Harvey’s subsequent work.
passage Bunge argued that ’the tyranny of fact compels that geographers’ go
into a state ofrationally controlled frcnzy about the exploration of the human
condition’ (1969,3). Geographers should form expeditions to the poorest and
most blighted areas of the country, contributing rather than taking resources,
planning lcith pcople rather than planningfor them, incorporating local people
rather than excluding them in an elitist way. By becoming a person of regions
of exploration the geographer would, by experience, find out what kinds of
work were needed and would then address himself to the problem. Local
people would be trained in geographic skills so that they could become part
of the solution to their problems and could continue the fight when thc expedi-
tion movcd on. Bungc’s proposal was thus a bold rcversal of the usual academic
prioritics and methods. His implementation of thc idea was even more start-
ling.
I3ullgc had been traincd University of Washington, a point of intense
at the
contradiction between the ’new gcography’, developing there more than any-
where else, and the background of socictal problems erupting in Scattlc as
much as elsewhere. White his early academic work was in thc most abstract
spatial theory, on arrival in Detroit (to teach at Waync Statc University) hc
chosc an area between a largc· institution and the expanding edge of the black
ghetto in which to livc, and involved himself in community affairs. Events
of the early and middle ig6os were then enough to thoroughly involve him,
and the students in his courses, in the civil rights movement and in applying
geography to the problems of low-income, and especially black, people. Il
ig6j, llc was refused tenure on the grounds of obscenity (swcaring during
lectures), and released from tcaching, which for him finally ’cut the essential
tic to the 11’hitc racist world and their moneyB The following ycar he began
the groundwork for an Expedition to Detroit (I3ungc, ig6g).
Thc resulting organization-the Society for Human EXploration-had
three branches: education, publications, and expeditions to oppressed areas.
The education branch consisted OfCOIIrSCS relevant to central-city Blacks (’The
regions of Detroit’, ’Xon-AngIo-America’, ’Urban planning’) offered at
Wayne State University and other southern Michigan institutions which were
subject to what was (and remains) an extremely intense Bungian influence. By
the spring of 1 g jo i coursers were offered, involving 1 o academic departments
at Michigan State University and an enrolment of 670 students (Horvath,
19i I). I3ut, soon after, such expeditionary principlcs as community control,
free tuitioll, and the volunteer faculty contributing their salaries to student
tuitions came to be viewed as intolerable by the univcrsity bureaucracy; un-
acceptable conditions for the continuation of the educational experiment w-erc
imposed and, when these were rejected by the expedition, the project was
terminated.
The publication plans of the expedition originally included a proposal for
The Joufllal of Human Evploralloti and several miscellaneous projects such as
an :Illa.s n~l.nre and Hate, but these did not materialize (or haB&dquo;C rlot appeared
as yct). Thc Detroit Expedition did, however, publish the results of research
experiences.
In the breakthrough from liberal to marxist geography a leading role was
played by Harvey, who had previously written the ’bible of new (theoretical)
geography’ (rg6g), and who moved very quickly through the stage of libcral
theory, to arrive at marxism by the early loyos. In a paper in Antipode, Harve}~
(ig72b) argued that the time was ripe for a revolution in geographic thought.
’It is the emerging objective social conditions and our patent inability to cope
with them which essentially explains the necessity for a revolution in geographic
thought.’ Instead of continuing with yet another empirical invcstigation of
social conditions in the ghettos, radicals should engage in the construction of
a new
paradigm for social geographic thought through a profound critique
ofcxisting analytic constructs. Concepts and ideas, categories and relationships
should be marshalled into such a superior system of thought when judged
against the realities requiring explanation, that all opposition to that system
of thought would look ludicrous. Rcjccting idealism and phcnomcnology as
possible paths for the proposed revolutionary theory, hc argued rather that an
arca of ovcrlap between positivism, materialism and phenomenology bc used.
Thc system he suggested was marxism, which incorporated a phenornenologi-
cal basis from lBlarx’s carly writings, shared a materialist basc and an analyti-
cal method in common with positivism, yet went further than both to subject
the very basis ofcapitalist socicty to a rigorous and critical examination. Thus,
for example, the problcm of ghetto formation in North American cities could
be effectively attackcd-only at its source by the elimination of the market
mechanism as the regulator of land use! Harvey thus arrived at a definition
of revolutionary theory as one grounded in the rcality it seeks to represent,
dialectically formulated, offering real choices for future moments in the social
process, and consequently holding the prospect for creating truth rathcr than
merely finding it (19ï:.?b; m~~;;, 15 1
Predictably, Harvcy’s paper drew an immediate negative reaction from
established geographers and the reverse from left geographers who had had
previous exposure to marxism. However, its effect was greatest among in-
cipicnt radicals still at the stage of assembling ’some huge dossier on the daily
injustices to the populace of the ghetto, over which wc beat our hrcélsls, com-
miserate with each other, before rctirirlg to our fireside comforts’ (Harvey,
if)~2b, jo). And from 1972 onwards the emphasis of radical geography
changed from an attempt to engage the discipline in socially significant rc-
search to an attempt to construct a radical philosophical and theoretical base
for a socially and politically engaged discipline. This base was increasingly
found in marxian theory, which some British geographers had been rcading
in the late ig6os, and many United States geographers began reading in the
early rg jos. Thcrc were two main tendencies in the reconstruction of a
thcorctically based radical gcography:
n a critique of the existing paradigms of convcntional gcography;
b the extraction ofgcographic theory from the marxist (and, later, anarchist) ’
literature.
tionship. First, that the relationship is with a body of science whose function
is the ideological protection of a social and economic system owned and con-
trollccl by a ruling minority of its members. Second, that because of this, science
has to be fragmented and, in the particular case of geography, its rclationship
with the rest of science has to be made obscure. Thc result is a politically· safe,
isolated discipline which deals with onty a fragment of knowledge; within this
fragment, geographers try to find ‘causes’ of thc problems thcy observe in what
is the spatial distribution of thc results of far deeper social causes. In other
words, we claim that the external relations of the disciplinc create an internal
chaos! Out of these general criticisms come twin radical proposals: to make
geography more obviously a part of a holistic science (and thus to bring the
demise of this and all separate disciplines), and to make this whole science
act on bchalf of thc: construction of a social and economic system owned and
controllcd by all the people contained within it.
This very general radical critiduc has emerged from two types of more par-
ticular criticism: intermediate levcl analyse5 of the institutions of the discipline
(Hurst, rcl~;;) and whole schools of geographic thought (Slater, 19ï:), on the
’new geography’), and an extensive series of more dctailcd discussions of cer.
tain geographic theories. It would be impossible, in the space available, to
provide a complete summary of all aspects of what now amounts to scverat
hundred pages of dctailcd criticism of the established geography. I3ut we can
discuss the major issue, so fundamental that it incorporates elements of most
of the radical criticisms: the question of the ideological nature of established
geographic theory.
A convenient, brief guide to the marxian concept of ideology, and its ex-
in
pression geography, has been provided by Andcrson (rc~~3). Drawing on
Lcfcbvrc’s discussion (ig6g, chapter 3), Anderson initially defines ideologies
as ’systems of ideas which give distorted and partial accounts of reality, with
the objective, and often unintended, effcct of serving the partial interests of
a particular social group or class’. Specific idealogics arc used to justify particu-
lar interests, but more important arc those general ideologies which justify
existing structures of power by ’providing a mystifying smoke-screen of supcr-
ficial concepts’. Ideologies may in part be based in fact, may in part be critical
of the status quo, and may not serve the most obvious and more immediate
interests of the ruling class; yet despite their possible critical insights institu-
tionalized ideologies hamper a real understanding of how society functions
and how it might be changed:
Science must distinguish essence from appearance; in social science the fetishes
of capitalism demand that appearances bc demolished allowing the essence
to be seen; and this necessitates the use of scicntific methods which allonv ana-
lytical penetration to the essence of the problem. Where can w-c find such
methods? One such method is historical materialism which in Folke’s (1973,
1~) words ’is objective in the sense that it provides a corrcct understanding
of the mechanisms, contradictions, and direction of development of capitalist
society’. To summarize an extremely long and complicated argument, for
marxist geographers the combination of the materialist perspective and the
dialectical method allows the developmcnt of non-idcological theory; that is,
dialectical materialism is the philosophical basis of a truly scientific social
science.
One particularly important facet of geographical ideology is the ’fetishism
ofspacc’ under which relations between social groups, or classes, arc presented
as relations between areas. ’Abstract geometrical conceptualizations ofspatial
&dquo;form&dquo; may be artificially set against the social &dquo;content&dquo; of space, obscuring
it by negating the dialectical relations of &dquo;content&dquo; and &dquo;form&dquo;’ (rlnderson,
1973, 3). Slater (1975, 1Go-3) ascribes this ’apparent ilability of many geo-
graphers to explain the underlying processes that give risc to ... spatial forms
and patterns’ in part to an inverted methodology which makes the collection
and manipulation of huge quantitics of (spatial) data the central objective
of research, keeping the majority of’new geographers’ away from theoretical
considerations. But this is only the most obvious aspect of thc formation of
ideology in geography. Far more important is gcography’s mechanistic and
uncritical adoption of models and theories from other social sciences which
more dircctly produce ideology. Thus 1BIassey (1973, 38) points out that the
but also retards, its dcvclopment. Hence wc find Pcct ([ 97.1 a, 2110) arguing
that :
1976, 306); for radicals an entirely new- structure of philosophy and theory.
In keeping with the liberal pursuit of a ’middle course’, there has been some
tendency for liberal geographers to borrow pieces of marxian theory for syn-
thesis with other ideas, without accepting the philosophical context in which
i%larx’s theory is embedded. This has brought sharp criticism from marxist
gcographcrs--for example Slater’s (1976) scathing attack on Portcr and dc
Souza (rg~~). But this is a mere skirmish. The battle between radical theor-
ists, drawing essentially on iBlarx, Engels, Lenin and Kropotkin, and orthodox
geography, buttressed by ’humanism’, ’phenomenology’ or, more probably,
’idealist dialectics’, has scarcely begun.
chosen and thc union grew to a couple aFhundred members within a year.
It has enrolled large numbers of students and participated in community
organizing at its most successful local (Simon Frascr University in British
Columbia), and arranged a number of activities at geographers’ meetings
(such as critiques of papers, and left-oriented special sessions on such topics
as imperialism, women, revolutionary theory). The scattered distribution of
radical geographers makes effective action by union locals, and even by the
union as a whotc, difficult although it continues to organize (Union of Socialist
Geographers, 1975-6).
The period ig72--6 thus saw western capitalism more obviously caught in
an uncontrollable process of inner destruction. The deepening contradictions
produced a flurry of crises, which the existing scientific theories could neither
predict nor prevent, throwing the established paradigms into disarray, and
promoting the search for theoretical perspectives capable of interpreting the
events ofa collapsing social system. Geography, with its quantification movc-
ment spent, foundered, again unable to say anything much about what was
happening. But radical geography began to construct a theoretical base
capable of providing an analysis of the events of late capitalism and proposing
revolutionary solutions. We began a deep critique of the established theory
in geography. We began to build radical theory by reading and reinterpreting
the socialist and anarchist literature. We gradually began to apply the analytic
methods we found there to thc contemporary situation. We organized in a
more obviously socialist form. Radical geography broke through to marxism
and began to mature.
In radical geography there arc signs that we have now passed through the
first cycle, characterized by exegetic theorizing, have applied marxian theory
to a series ofpractical problems, and arc beginning a second, more innovative
of commodity attitudes and the system’s need to expand makes up the diaicc-
tics of man’s self-destruction. The cnvironmcntal crises wc experience today
arc the symptoms of man’s transformation of the earth from benign home
to tlzc cesspool afhis last resting place. It is thus that the dialectical materialist
approach can be
applied to environment-man relations (see e.g., Coatcs,
1972); yct this of geography remains largely untouched by radical geo-
arca
graphcrs (for an exception, see Ovcrton, 1976). This would seem to indicate
that radical geography is still trappcd in thc areas of emphasis of the ’new
geography’ which stressed spatial rathcr than environmental qucstions. If so,
it is time to brcak the last links with liberalism, for a truly mature radical
geography must cover all capitalist contradictions of a geographical type, bc
holistic within itself, and integrated with both social and physical academic
disciplines to contribute fully to a whole radical science.
III Conclusion: material context and the development of conscious-
ness
This essay has presented a case study of the relationship between the context
ofmaterial events and the development of radical consciousness. In conclusion
I w-ill drawtogether some general idcas on this relationship derived from the
experience, and contemplation on the experience, of the development of radical
geography.
Consciousness develops under the stimulus of a sequence of changing
material events. These events arc perceived and experienced, assigned a placc in
a pre-eaisting but changing order ofevents, and
’appropriated’ or incorporated
to become a part of an individual’s knowledge and awareness. Ifthc appropria-
tion is a significant one it may cause consciousness to leap to a new level, a#fect-
ing perception, oricntation and appropriation the next time that type, or even
another type, of event occurs (Oilman, 1971, part II). Hence, while material
events provides a ’determining’ context for the development of consciousness,
the deterministic relationship between the two is a dialectical onc. This allows
consciousness to achicvc a dynamic somewhat of its own in which change may
take both quantitative and qualitative forms, although qualitative change
almost always occurs under the cnhanccd stimulus of contradiction and
extreme crisis in the material context. Includcd in the context of material
events are ideologies, those propagatcd by the directors of the political systcm,
and those propagated by its critics. The system-supportive ideologies serve to
blunt the effects of sharp events, provide diversionary explanations for their
causes, and in a myriad otherways act to promote false consciousness. And yet,
undcr capitalism, socictal contradiction must inevitably surface, for it cannot
be contained, and efforts to counteract it only produce a greater explosion
in thc end. Contradiction and mounting crisis constantly threaten the structure
of false consciousness causing the agencies of cultural diversion (’enter-
tainment’ etc.) to seek ever more ridiculous and destructive modes, until false
consciousness itsclf is so ridden with internal contradiction as to collapse, like
Nixon, under a galc of derision. Then humans encounter the dircct influence
ofsocietal contradiction which is appropriatcd as deep criticism, consciousness
develops, the individual’s struggle with an imposcd self escalates and the col-
lcctive transcendence to a new social order begins. The revolution is at hand.
Who can question that this process has not already’ begun? Is it not obvious
that, cspccially during the rg6os, contradictions began to cause massive social
disintcgration in the countries of ‘advanced’ capitalism? Is it not clear that
in the ig70s new contradictions have continued to be added to the old, that
one contradiction has fed into another, and that the level ofgencral contradic-
tion is rising? And anyone who has watched the efforts of the state to ’solve’
its problems knows them to be superficial, sees thc state’s reliance on divcr-
sionary ideology increasing, and knows that in the end we will be forced, by
life-tlireatening contradiction, to grapple with basic causcs-to encounter
revolutionary solution.
Acadcmics, whether they want to be or not, are an integral part of this pro-
cess. They arc firstly conscious human beings and secondly knowlcdgcablc
