The radical approach in geography developed in the middle 1960s as part of an oppositional politics which coalesced around domestic issues like inequality, racism, sexism, environment, crime, and the opposition to the Vietnam war in USA. Radical geography is the study of the quality of life. It is the quest for social relevance of the discipline of geography.
