Abstract

By asking ‘what could geographers do for shrinking geographies’ Josefina Syssner offers a very comprehensive overview of what has been and should be on the research agenda’s for understanding rural shrinking geographies. In this commentary I would like to address three issues related to the Fennia keynote, that may add an additional perspective or a moment of reflection: 1) the issue of demographic change, rather than shrinkage, 2) how we can imagine the future of shrinking geographies, and 3) what Nordic perspectives have to offer. In conclusion, I believe that peripheral geographies, and challenged rurality’s deserve a key position within geography and related disciplines, and call for a repolitisation of the topic: what we research, how we conceptualise or even advice has consequences for those living and imagining futures in peripheral, rural and depopulating regions.

缩小的地域还是受到挑战的乡村?反思三点——对赛斯纳的评论
通过询问“地理学家可以为缩小的地理做些什么”,Josefina Syssner提供了一个非常全面的概述,关于了解农村缩小的地理的研究议程已经和应该做些什么。在这篇评论中,我想谈谈与芬尼亚主题相关的三个问题,这可能会增加一个额外的视角或一个反思的时刻:1)人口变化问题,而不是萎缩问题;2)我们如何想象缩小地域的未来;3)北欧的观点可以提供什么。综上所述,我认为边缘地理学和乡村性挑战应该在地理学和相关学科中占据关键地位,并呼吁对这一主题进行再政治化:我们研究的内容,我们如何概念化甚至建议对那些生活在边缘、农村和人口减少地区并想象未来的人产生影响。
