Vida Vanchan, professor of geosciences and director of Buffalo State's Global Studies Institute, recently published a book chapter titled “Global Economy: Geographies of Production during Crises” in Contemporary Economic Geographies: Inspiring, Critical and Diverse Perspectives (J. Johns and S. M. Hall, eds.; Bristol University Press, 2024). The chapter examines the key actors and processes that contribute to the global economy and the work by economic geographers in understanding the geographies of production, supply chain disruptions, and economic life. It seeks to develop a more resilient approach in economic geography to understand the changing nature of global economy, production systems, and societies during crises.
