An Invitation to Postmodern Social Cartography.
Paulston, Rolland G.; Liebman, Martin
Comparative Education Review, v38 n2 p215-32 May 1994
Structures of multiple education and knowledge systems can be recreated in maps, in a social cartography where the space of the social map reflects effects of social changes in real space. Such maps allow social research to escape from modernism's positivist restraints, improve comparative educators' understanding of the social milieu, and open the dialogue among diverse social players.
