In this paper the author examines how Korea's export-oriented economy has laid its new foundation for global competitiveness by deepening interfirm linkages. Korea's interfirm linkages refer mainly to the relationship between large and small firms. R... Read More about Software for Qualitative Research: 2 Some Thoughts on 'Aiding' Analysis.

Picturing Practices: Research through the Tourist Gaze (1997)
Journal Article
Crang, M. (1997). Picturing Practices: Research through the Tourist Gaze. Progress in Human Geography, 21(3), 359-374. https://doi.org/10.1191/030913297669603510

Geographers have shown the centrality of representations of landscape to understanding social geographies. This article suggests that so far more attention has been paid to the representations than the practices that create these representations. Usi...

Software for Qualitative Research: 1 Prospectus and Overview (1997)
Journal Article
Crang, M., Hudson, A., Reimer, S., & Hinchliffe, S. (1997). Software for Qualitative Research: 1 Prospectus and Overview. Environment and Planning A, 29(5), 771-787. https://doi.org/10.1068/a290771

In recent years there has been growing interest in the use of computers within qualitative geography. In this paper we review the types of software packages that have been adopted and outline some of their distinctive features. We discuss the intelle...

Bedrock landsliding is a dominant geomorphic process in a number of high-relief landscapes, yet is neglected in landscape evolution models. A physical model of sliding in beans is presented, in which incremental lowering of one wall simulates baselev... Read More about Hillslope evolution by bedrock landslides.
