Excellent TLS critical review of Mark Mazower’s “On #Antisemitism: A Word in #History”. Reviewer Abigail Green is concerned that the author’s exclusive focus on the #historical use of “antisemitism” ignores both #religious and #geographical contexts: www.the-tls.com/politics-soc...

Image shows cover page from the Bollettino della Società Geografica italiana [Bulletin of the Italian Geographical Society for the editorial: Geographies of Ageing: Trends and Perspectives Abstract Population ageing, a rapidly expanding and globally widespread phenomenon, manifests with varying intensity and patterns across territories, generating new social and demographic geographies. The nineteen articles collected in this thematic issue offer a broad and comprehensive overview of the interactions between population and territory, examining ageing from multiple perspectives and across different territorial and spatial scales, ranging from the European to the Italian context. Despite their methodological and thematic diversity, the contributions interweave to form a multifaceted narrative on the challenges and opportunities associated with ageing and its territorial implications.

The trip from London to Inverness was purely #geographical. I packed a compass, three guidebooks, and a sherpa from the Adventurers’ Club. None were particularly helpful, but the sherpa insisted the train was definitely pointing north—which, he said, was an encouraging direction.

we are from different cities
with different accents
I've never told you
I don't get half of what you say
but guys from my
#geographical region
don't make
my heart race
if love has a different language
yours and mine are the same

"...fragments of epi-graphic evidence, show that Wales was divided into a minimum of five tribal areas roughly approximating to broad geographical divisions."

Isodemographic Map of Canada. by University of British Columbia, Canada Department of Fisheries and Forestry, Canada Policy Research and Coordination Branch. Published in 1971. Shows census division boundaries, census metropolitan areas, selected census major urban areas, selected incorporated cities, and provincial and international boundaries Based on Dominion Bureau of Statistics 1966 census of Canada. Areal scale: one square inch represents 60,000 people. Legend in English and French Indexed for census divisions The extreme spatial contrasts in population density in Canada, partly due to the advanced stage of urbanization, make a conventional map an unsuitable base to use in the presentation and analysis of many population characteristics. A map of Canada has therefore been devised in which the areas occupied by census units are proportional to their population. In addition, separate maps of the twelve largest urban centres have been devised which show census tracts in the same manner but at a larger scale. The necessary transformation of the area and shape of census units was achieved mechanically by means of physical models of Canada and the individual cities in which the populations of the units were represented by appropriate numbers of 1/8” diameter steel ball bearings. The final output, termed an isodemographic map, is a graphical refinement of the physical models to which boundary detail and some topographic features have been added to aid the user. An Isodemographic map is a type of cartogram in which the size of each area (e.g., country, province, city) is proportional to its population. (Synonym: density-equalizing map) A cartogram is a map in which the geometry of regions is distorted in order to convey the information of an alternate variable. The region area will be inflated or deflated according to its numeric value.
