Title: Remaking Regional Economies Authors: Christopherson, Susan; Clark, Jennifer Description: This book is both a critique of the “new regionalism” and a return to the “regional question,” including all of its concerns with equity and uneven development. It will challenge researchers and students to consider the region as a central scale of action in the global economy. At the core of the book are case studies of two industries that rely on skilled, innovative, and flexible workers – the optics and imaging industry and the film and television industry. Combined with this is a discussion of the regions that constitute their production centers. The authors’ intensive research on photonics and entertainment media firms, both large and small, led them to question some basic assumptions behind the new regionalism and to develop an alternative framework for understanding regional economic development policy. Finally, there is a re-examination of what the regional question means for the concept of the learning region

Title: Geography and Japan’s Strategic Choices Authors: J. Woolley, Peter Description: The aim of these chapters is to offer a brief survey of Japan’s strategic choices over several centuries and of the ways in which these choices have been shaped by geopolitical pressures. This approach differs from many other explanations of Japan’s foreign and defense policies because of its recurring focus on geographical influences throughout otherwise distinct periods of Japanese history.

Title: Cuban Landscapes Authors: L. Scarpaci, Joseph; H. Portela, Armando Description: The study of landscapes is an eclectic discipline, requiring us to cast a necessarily broad net to capture the many nuances of Cuba and cubanidad (“Cubanness”). Some of the earliest noncartographic representations of the island of Cuba come to us in the form of landscape paintings. This genre departed from 18th-century European treatments of oil portraits, rooms, objects (flowers, vases, and quotidian features), gardens, and other smaller spaces
