Montology

This book series results from perceived needs to fill gaps in modern geographical thought, by bringing a transdisciplinary, decolonial and inclusive way of mountain cognition. The establishment of Montology, as the transdisciplinary science of mountains, allows to produce this book series that incorporates not only descriptive narratives about mountains, but also recent about-face towards an Spinozan epistemology of the mountainscape. Convergent science of mountains allows for considering hybrid spaces where culture and nature have shaped and continue to model different topographies and mindscapes around the world.  Attuned to the recent shift of the trope of mountain geographies, this book series is envisioned as the go-to reference for learning about mountains from different perspectives, with a refreshed insight from the global South to the global North, incorporating socio-ecological production landscapes and seascapes, arguing for the biocultural heritage microrefugia conservation and not only sustainable, but regenerative development scenarios, in the new era of climate change woes and the reality of catastrophic pandemics.
