Abstract

This viewpoint offers a perspective on how critical GIS and critical GIScience can develop and go further in times of widespread concern and unease around the world. The basis for this is the distinction between critical theory and critical thinking. Revisiting this difference, especially in the many hybrids involving theories and applications with geographic information technologies, is important for thinking and reflecting on broader issues and assuring the integrity of our work.
