Preface
The New Oxford Handbook of Economic Geography
Edited by Gordon L. Clark, Maryann P. Feldman, Meric S. Gertler, and Dariusz Wójcik
Quite obviously, NOHEG builds upon the success of the original Oxford Handbook of Eco
nomic Geography (OHEG; 2002). In many respects, that was a very different project than
NOHEG. When we were developing the logic and building blocks of OHEG, the field of
economic geography was less a shared project across social science disciplines and more
a separate thread in the various disciplines that played host to ‘economic geographers’.
In this respect, OHEG sought to bring together scholars who were engaged with related
issues, even if their theories and analytical approaches were quite different. As such, the
compilation was deliberately framed as a dialogue between economists, geographers, and
urban and regional planners comparing and contrasting their approaches to common is
sues. By contrast, NOHEG takes this dialogue as given and seeks to represent the re
markable development of the field within and across disciplines.
Once again, our intention has been to give life to this dialogue without advocating one
specific way of being an economic geographer or, for that matter, restricting the focus of
the Handbook to a set of issues that are the core of economic geography. Throughout this
volume, pluralism reigns supreme. We leave it to the readers to make their own judge
ments about the salience of issues, the virtues of competing theoretical approaches, and
the claims and counterclaims made by contributors about how to conceptualize twenty-
first-century globalization. In part, our pluralism reflects the editorial team, of whom
Page 1 of 2
Preface
three were editors of the original volume. The newly added fourth editor brings his own
programme of financial geography and valuable experience to the project. All benefit the
NOHEG through their expertise in a variety of ways: our first editor has had a longstand
ing career in the economics discipline, the second has successfully transitioned between
economics and geography and public policy and business schools, and our third editor
(before becoming university president) is engaged in issues of innovation at the interface
between economics, geography, and political science. Inevitably, our separate and com
mon experience frames the project.
The OHEG began with a manifesto. Simply and directly, the volume opened with a state
ment regarding the core principles or foundations upon which the volume was based. We
term these principles ‘significant points of departure’, emphasizing difference, (p. viii) dif
ferentiation, and the heterogeneity of the economic landscape. These principles have
stood the test of time. And, as you would expect, they underwrite NOHEG. These princi
ples challenge commonplace expectations of convergence in economic prospects and de
velopment across regions, nations, and the globe. At the same time in this volume these
principles deserve and receive deeper analysis than in the first volume. So much has
changed in the twenty years between conceiving OHEG and realizing NOHEG. And yet, as
many readers of the first volume have observed, these principles remain contested and
contestable. We are pleased that this is the case and hope that NOHEG carries through on
the challenge represented by difference, differentiation, and heterogeneity.
Our Handbook is dedicated to the memory of Susan Christopherson, who died on 14 De
cember 2016. She was a valued colleague and dear friend whose work was motivated by
a desire to understand people, places, politics, institutions, and economic processes. Her
contribution to this book has all this and much more. On behalf of the community whose
work is embodied by this Handbook, we salute her contribution to academic life and her
commitment to friendship.

At Oxford, we were fortunate to have a team that has carried the Handbook through its
various stages. We would especially like to thank Alice Chautard, Seth Collins, Angelika
Kaiser, Irem Kok, and Sarah McGill for their reading of submissions, their attention to the
form and structure of the book and its various sections, and their help in meeting the var
ious deadlines that a book of this size must meet. Also important in this regard has been
the enthusiasm and encouragement found in our OUP editors, notably Dominic Byatt and
David Musson, Olivia Wells, and the New York-based Handbook staff led by Sarah Kain.
We are very grateful for their engagement with this project, and its previous incarnation.
Along the way, we had an opportunity to present both the book and the role of our con
tributors to the wider academic community through the Fourth Global Conference on
Economic Geography (2015) in Oxford. This event was led by Dariusz Wójcik, along with
the staff of the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment and the School of Geog
raphy and the Environment. Most importantly, Patrizia Ferrari’s conference management
made this possible. At the conference we held a number of meetings with contributors, al
lowing for a dialogue about their contributions and the significance of the book. We are
very grateful to those contributors who participated for their enthusiasm and engage
ment in this initiative.

Finally, any long-running project such as this incurs many debts—specifically, the pa
tience of our families and friends. Peter and Shirley, Gordon M. Allen, Joanna, Isabel and
Miles, and Ana have, in their different ways, sustained our academic careers and demon
strated their continued support throughout this particular project. (p. x)
