Does so-called “globalization,” the central theme of the ultraliberal ideologicaldiscourse, announce the end of geography? Through reflections presented here and ananalysis of the case of the Movement of Landless Rural Workers (MST), we seek toshow that geography is a body of knowledge that seeks to make itself a social scienceof space at many levels, including territorial conflict, the emergence of new sociospacialidentities, participant observation by geographers, and the commitment ofgeographers to improving their own world. In this way, we argue that geographyshould be able to clarify and accompany the ongoing emergence of a new reality.
