moral geography
Definition
- Moral geography is the subdiscipline of geography concerned with the relationship between morality and space. A primary concern of moral geographers has been the relationship between morality and distance, often referred to as “the problem of distant strangers.” Theories of care account for moral motivation, which they find in the concrete relationships and experiences of more-than-rational and thoroughly social persons.
