environmental determinism
Environmental determinism, also known as ''climatic determinism'' or ''geographical determinism'', is the belief that the physical environment predisposes human social development towards particular trajectories. A nineteenth- and early twentieth-century approach to the study of geography argued that the general laws sought by human geographers could be found in the physical sciences. Geography, therefore, became focused on the study of how the physical environment affected, or even caused, human culture and activities. This approach has been accused of supporting colonialism, eurocentrism, and is currently largely discredited. This rather crude view of human behaviour has come under fierce criticism and has been, in part, displaced by environmentalism. Jared Diamonds theory strongly relates to this. It states that botany, zoology, microbiology and social sciences all contribute to whether a country develops quickly. The topic of development and environmental determinism go hand in hand.〔Painter & Jeffrey, "Political Geography", Sage Publications, 2009, pg.200.〕
