Geography of marginalised spaces and hidden knowledge (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786202831659)

The book unveils an inclusive geography of marginalized spaces and hidden knowledge from the perception of shadows in the village of Haqui (Mozambique) and the city of Macap (Brazil). It is a geography that seeks to mean the daily life of the village of Haqui. In this village knowledge is shared and transmitted from generation to generation without being systematized in specialized treatises as it happens with western science. Having worked in African environments, Milton Santos was one of the promoters of the need to value local creativity, lower circuits of the economy, fruits of knowledge and non-standard, improvised solutions. Boaventura de Sousa Santos also encourages the inclusive approach with his conceptions about the epistemologies of the South and the ecology of knowledge, justifying what in Mozambique we have been calling inclusive geography not only of people with special educational needs but of marginal spaces.
