Reception and Criticisms section

Perhaps the Reception and Criticisms sub-section under The Production of Space should be elevated to a full section. This could include Castells's structuralist criticisms on Lefebvre's thesis of urban society, as well as other aspects of his reception. I am thinking here for instance of Soja's efforts to situate Lefebvre within post-modern geography, and the response this has evoked from other scholars like Goonwardena, Schmid, and Elden. Also worth mentioning would probably be the delayed and fragmented way Lefebvre's oeuvre has been adopted by anglophone scholars, and especially geographers (according to Elden and various other Lefebvre experts). Finally, there is the accusations by Neil Smith, Alex Loftus, and other geographers and political ecologists of a dualistic treatment of nature and society by Lefebvre, though John Bellamy Foster and others have countered that Lefebvre's handling of nature-society was dialectical, and that accusations of dualism reflect a monist rather than dialectical mindset. I can provide some of this text if everyone is in agreement with the proposal to elevate the Reception and Criticisms section. GeoMarxBMN (talk) 08:21, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography

Strange as it may seem the bibliography misses 2 or 3 of his most important works.--Radh (talk) 12:49, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Radh: Further, most commentaries on Lefebvre's bibliography note that he wrote somewhere near seventy books and more than 100 articles; the bibliography in this article does not show his entire book oeuvre, and shows none of his articles. Perhaps the best way to organize this is to create a separate bibliography page that is comprehensive. Joeyvandernaald (talk) 19:16, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

under production of space

natural space and 'absolute space' are not synonymous for Lefevbre... I think this should be changed
