This book is dedicated to Peter Meusburger
(1942–2017), the spiritus rector of the
Knowledge & Space symposia and the
founding editor of this book series. Drawing
on his own pioneering research on the
productive capacity of local milieux to
generate new ideas and fresh thinking, Peter
workedconsistentlytobringtogetherscholars
from across the globe and from different
disciplines andintellectual traditions toshare
theirideasandtheoriesabouttherelationship
between human knowledge and geography in
the many unique spaces he created in
Heidelberg. Sadly, Peter passed away just as
thisvolumewentintoproductioninDecember
2017. We cherish his inspirational leadership
as an original researcher, a passionate
teacher, and a much-loved colleague.
