<i>Spaces of Hope</i> continues and extends David Harvey's radical Marxist engagement with the geographies of capitalism. There is a lot of conceptual material here, and some familiarity with his previous work - especially <i>The Limits to Capital</i> (1982), <i>The Condition of Postmodernity</i> (1989) and <i>Justice, Nature, and the Geography of Difference</i> (1996) - would assist the reader. In this review, however, we treat the book as a stand-alone work, and it is indeed a rewarding read for those new to Harvey's oeuvre.
