Whether they are authoritarian, hegemonic, participatory or critical, they are most often guided by the desire to have control over space, and always involve power relations. This book takes stock of the knowledge acquired and the debates conducted in the field of critical cartography over some thirty years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Politics of Mapping\u003c\/i\u003e includes analyses of recent semiological, social and technological innovations in the production and use of maps and, more generally, geographical information. The chapters are the work of specialists in the field, in the form of a thematic analysis, a theoretical essay, or a reflection on a professional, scientific or militant practice. From mapping issues for modern states to the digital and big data era, from maps produced by Indigenous peoples or migrant–advocacy organizations in Europe, the perspectives are both historical and contemporary.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003eBernard Debarbieux\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Cultural and Political Geography at the University of Geneva, Switzerland.
