Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
In his commentary "Mapping the Commons," Jeff Fox clearly articulates how "spatial information technologies" have facilitated the exploration of spatial relationships between "cultures" and "their landscapes," and helped some indigenous groups protect their land and resources from competing claims. His thoughtful exploration of the context and implications of these efforts sets the groundwork for further constructive and critical analysis of the use of these technologies. In what follows, I will comment on and add to Fox's discussion in an effort to more closely examine notions of community and the often intensely political nature of mapping. I will also situate the mapping movement within a larger social and political economic context.
