Mapping has evolved beyond navigation into a method for interpreting spatial, ephemeral, and sociopolitical dimensions of contemporary life. This volume explores how cartographic practices are being reimagined across disciplines to understand and reconfigure urban space.
The chapters examine mapping as both representational and generative, spanning participatory mapping in informal settlements, film-based documentation of marginalised geographies, embodied cartographies, and data-driven analysis. Organised into five parts, "Representation," "Critical Cartographies," "Mapping Belonging," "Performative Cartographies," and "Data Mapping", the volume highlights methodological and layered dimensions of contemporary mapping. By interrogating traditional cartography, the book emphasises maps' role in constructing social realities and navigating contested urban terrains. Contributors demonstrate mapping as an engagement practice that reveals hidden geographies, amplifies marginal voices, and reimagines spaces.
This volume challenges readers to reconsider mapping as an interdisciplinary practice and mode of inquiry that can transform our understanding of complex environments and social dynamics. It will be of interest to researchers and students of urban design, architecture, planning, human geography, politics and sociology.
