Summary: | This article discusses the recent use in the Political Geography of the structuralist social theories. It is
performed initially, a brief reflection on the depreciation (or appreciation) of the utopias and Marxist
concepts. The methodological foundations of geographical approaches based on the world-systems theory
are analyzed. It is also questioned the relationship of these approaches with geopolitical analysis in the
macro-scale. At last, abridged, there is a discussion about the links of imperialism and the regulation theory
with the geography. |
