Geographies of Experiment/Experimental Geographies: A Rough Guide

Abstract: Geographers have increasingly employed the notion of experiment to describe the explorative styles of researching and thinking that they have elaborated in response to the complexities that characterise the present world. This article discusses the shifting uses of the notion in recent contributions, tracing out the ethical, methodological and theoretical sensibilities that it brings into geography.

As Karvonen and van Heur (2014: 387) note, "real-world experimentation is founded on the idea that one is compelled to act despite uncertainties and gaps in knowledge."…”
