SARMENTO, João. David Harvey: places and encounters. Finisterra [online]. 2016, n.101, pp.71-88. ISSN 0430-5027.  https://doi.org/10.18055/Finis6753.

The importance of David Harvey's work in the History of Geographical Thought and of Social Sciences is invaluable. Invariably labelled as Marxist or even Post-Marxist, concerned with spatial justice especially in an urban context, his dialectical thinking/work has resulted in fundamental ideas and concepts for the development of Geography and the Social Sciences and has inspired several generations of intellectuals. The aim of this article is to present a panoramic view over the work of this geographer, identifying the very specific moments and places of paradigm change, recognising the importance of biographic details and social and institutional practices on scientific practices and intellectual production. An outline of the importance of his scientific legacy is also provided through a look at the doctoral supervision Harvey has conducted in the last 45 years

Palabras clave : David Harvey; epistemological disruptions; biography; places; geographical thought.
