Full Text
Economic geography refers to the study of distribution, location and the organization in space of all economic activities globally. It is a subfield of geography but can
however also be considered as a part of the study of economics. The subject of economic geography covers several fields such as international trade, agglomeration,
transportation as well as urban economics.
Economic geography has undergone several changes that have led to its differentiation onto the various topics that it is divided into. The dynamic nature of
economic geography can be viewed from a historical perspective and a postmodern perspective. From the historical approach, economic geography comprises
commercial geography, environmental determinism, areal differentiation, spatial organization as well as location theory. On the other hand, the post-modern approach
is classified as either behavioral or dialectical. The behavioral postmodern approach to economic geography includes phenomenology, which studies the key events
that affect economic geography as well as the structural behaviors that influence economic geography. The dialectical approach involves radical humanism as well as
a Marxist view of the study.
The study of economic geography also considers the economic systems and organizations that exist in the society. These include the competing mindsets that exist
in the economy. There are three mindsets that are considered which include; a conservative mindset that seeks to retain the status quo, the liberal mindset that can
work with whatever is there at present and finally, theradical mindset that proposes and suggests radical changes. Socio-political systems also form a major economic
system. This is by considering the capitalistic economies, mixed economic systems, command systems, traditional economies as well as organizational and market
negotiated systems.
There are several modes that are used in defining economic geography such as the nature of facts, which considers the factual evidence of economic geography.
The models used in the study include positive or descriptive model and the normative or prescriptive model. Furthermore, the idea of nomothetism and idiographism
form part of the models of economic geography. According to the philosopher Wilhelm Windelband, Nomothetic refers to the tendency of generalization in which an
effort is placed in an attempt to generally explain and define laws that describe phenomena that is objective. Idiographic on the other hand specifies the meaning and
derives laws for subjective phenomena.Additionally, the Hartshorne-Schaefer debate makes a fundamental contribution to the field of economic geography. Schaefer
proposed that scientific techniques should be implemented in studying spatial laws. He also critiqued the Hartshorne method and philosophy that was propagated

through the Hartshonian orthodoxy.
In its contextual form, economic geography includes the study of population, re. The population refers to the number of people living in a particular geographical
location at a particular time. The re that are utilized by this population could either be to increase the production of food or to create other food that would ensure the
survival and continuity of the population. However, there are other non-renewable re that once utilized cannot be reverted back to their previous form and have to be
used with caution. This leads to the polarized scarcity debate. This pitted the pessimists against the optimists.
On the human rational, the decision processes. Decision making can occur at several levels each with its own models and characteristics such as decision making at
the individual level, corporate decision making as well as decision making based on the government’s directive.
The primary sector in economic geography is the agricultural sector which is a primary sector. The primary sectors of production include; mining, forestry. The
agricultural sector forms a fundamental area of study in economic geography. To begin with, there are several aspects of agriculture that can be studied. The
agricultural sector is defined by several characteristics which include the number of production units, the multiplicity of the products, the biological nature of
production, self-sufficing production and the nature of the decisions made based on the location. Agriculture, being a fundamental sector of study for economic
geography has a severe impact on the economy of many countries, Canada forms an important case study. Agriculture has even penetrated into modern societies and
it is imperative that a proper location process is carried to determine the suitable agricultural areas. The von Thunen model connected the theory of rent to spatial
economics and demonstrated that there is little importance in the patterns formed by how land is used but more on the approach that is analytical. This perspective by
von Thunen led to the various perspectives on the model; the intensity theory and the crop theory.
Re and resource management also forms a part of the primary sectors considered in economic geography. A resource refers to a form of supply that can be
profitably and beneficially harnessed.Natural re form the beneficial supplies that occur without the influence of humans. Re are classified as either renewable or
non-renewable. Renewable re are those that are constantly replace after utilization. However, the non-renewable re are those which are completely exhausted and not
naturally replaced or regenerated.Cowboy and spaceship economics are used to determine the economic value of the agricultural locations.
Finally, industrial location forms the secondary sector. This is further grouped into industrial and manufacturing geography. There are several types of industries
which include; construction and utility industries and tools and measurement industries. The location of these industries is determined by such primary factors as raw
materials, energy re availability of labor, facilities of transportation as well as the location of the markets for the produced goods. The secondary factors are; the
physical location, policies enforced by the government, the taxes as well as personal considerations. There are theories which have been forwarded to suggest the
placement of locations for manufacturing. These include; the least cost theories, Weber’s Theory of Least cost location and theories that emphasize demand.
