This essay analyzes the geographical representations in the works of Hegel, Marx and Foucault as interfaces between world and theory starting from the thesis of the metaphorical character of geographical space. According to Giuseppe Dematteis, the geographical metaphors allow us to project the social order (existing or not) on the physical objects of the Earth's surface and represent Has if" it were the natural order of things, using the principles of materiality, spatiality and metaphorical efficacy. This is what happens in the works of Hegel, Marx and Foucault with the metaphors of "world", "globe" and "archipelago" respectively.

Abstract

This essay analyzes the geographical representations in the works of Hegel, Marx and Foucault as interfaces between world and theory starting from the thesis of the metaphorical character of geographical space. According to Giuseppe Dematteis, the geographical metaphors allow us to project the social order (existing or not) on the physical objects of the Earth's surface and represent Has if" it were the natural order of things, using the principles of materiality, spatiality and metaphorical efficacy. This is what happens in the works of Hegel, Marx and Foucault with the metaphors of "world", "globe" and "archipelago" respectively.
