A GEOGRAPHY OF WHAT HAPPENS AND WHAT MAY HAPPEN
Keywords:
Speculation, Relational approach, epistemologyAbstract
More-than-representational approaches in geography have been called the geography of what happens, which is explained by their appeal in seeking to highlight everyday relationships in their research. Recently, the philosophical current of speculative realism has presented criticisms of relational approaches, such as those that substantiate the geography of what happens. This article, essentially epistemological, seeks to evaluate the impact of the critique of speculative realism on the theoretical discussion of the geography of what happens. We conclude in the midst of the proposed discussion that spectral approaches in geography present themselves as a mitigating factor in criticism and that the geography of what happens becomes, in the midst of the adjustment to strictly relational criticism, a geography of what happens and what can happen.
