Raju, When I first joined this forum some years ago, you postings about spatial parochialism were among the first things I read. At that time I had no idea what 'critical geography' actually was - I imagined it refered to a bunch of geographers complaining all the time. I now understand that being a critical social scientist refers to one's ontological perspective. In that case, surely a critical social scientist isn't critical about this and not that, but rather is 'just critical'. Of course, it is possible to adopt differing ontological perspectives. So, therefore, we might adpot a critical approach to our considerations about capitalism one day and, the next, approach it from a more positivistic perspective - perhaps as we calculate the decreased value of our stocks and shares ISAs! ?
