Abstract

In recent years, migration research has contributed to developing the connections between population geography and social theory. Critical and feminist geographers have played a central role in bringing into dialogue the concerns of objectivist and interpretivist research on spatial mobility. This article reviews some of this recent work, and argues that the issues at the core of critical migration studies are also those animating the discipline of geography more broadly. Inasmuch as migration research is engaging population geography with social theoretical debates, it is contributing towards the achievement of Trewartha's goal of placing population research in a pivotal position within the discipline of geography.

A covariant Action describing a mobile dispersive mirror in one dimension is presented. We construct the Hamiltonian in the comoving (noninertial) frame, with emphasis on the treatment of the boundary condition. The Hamiltonian in the nonrelativistic approximation is derived. We consider the case wh
