Baton Rouge (Louisiana): On the Importance of Thematic Cartography for 'Neopragmatic Horizontal Geography’

Abstract

Abstract The presented contribution is based on the testing of a 'neopragmatic' access to spaces in the context of horizontal geography using the case study of Baton Rouge, Louisiana (USA). In this approach, the focus is less on the theoretical framing or the detailed development of community development, but rather on the importance of thematic cartography in the neopragmatic approach of regional geography. The neopragmatic approach prioritizes the multi-perspective study of spatial constellations over theoretical 'purity' and methodological clarity. The investigation is 'horizontally' oriented and is characterized by the constructivist framed synthesis of research results from different disciplines (e.g., on economic or structural development).
