ABSTRACT This manuscript reviews the urban growth process in the Temuco-Padre las Casas conurbation (Chile) on indigenous land, highlighting three topics of great interest. First, the ability of legislation to regulate the protection of indigenous land. Second, the role played by the real estate sector as the main protagonist of urban expansion on indigenous land. Finally, the subsidiary role of those

ABSTRACT Regional bioeconomies promote sustainable, regional economies under the auspices of EU green growth policies. Combining prospects of rural rejuvenation, sustainability and innovation, they are employed to address climate change, societal challenges, and often benefit from substantial public funds. Yet, despite public finance's key role for bio-based transitions and (regional) bioeconomies

ABSTRACT While re-employment opportunities for redundant workers have been a much-debated topic in economic geography, the characteristics of these new employments and the medium-run effect of major lay-offs constitute a less explored field. The present paper investigates skill matching between the pre-redundancy job and the employment workers have five years after redundancy by studying the distance

ABSTRACT Video games developers engage with their creations, and games in general, in profoundly emotional ways. Since the industry became a mass-market phenomenon, a growing body of research has emerged interrogating the connections between developers and the games they produce and how these connections relate to broader affective issues seen in the cultural and creative industries. Most of the research

ABSTRACT This paper investigates the characteristics and functional-demographic diversity of municipalities in Poland that use spatial data. It answers the question about the relationship between accessibility to services of general interest (SGI; public administration, child-care, educational, medical, and cultural services) in municipalities and their demographic conditions. Demographic literature

ABSTRACT Responding to ideas about ‘geologizing the social’ (Clark and Gunaratnam 2017 Clark, Nigel, and Yasmin Gunaratnam. 2017. “Earthing the Anthropos?

ABSTRACT After the evacuation of the Gush Katif settlement and intensifying with the 2008–2009 Israeli War on Gaza, the border town of Sderot and its surrounding landscape became, for American Christian Zionists, a pilgrimage landscape and therefore a sacred space as it was performed as an event site portending the apocalypse. Christian Zionists interpreted the war and the landscape it took place on

ABSTRACT In many countries, the objective of reducing public spending combined with the introduction of New Public Management reforms have led to changes in the territorial organization of public services and to a withdrawal of public facilities in many places. Our hypothesis is that in France, this territorial process has not occurred in the same way in all cities. We assume that while medium-sized

ABSTRACT For the past ten years, the growth debate has been urban-centric, at least in Germany, while rural areas have been largely associated with depopulation. Despite their importance, small towns fall into a systematic perception gap in scientific and planning discourses. Against this background, this paper applies a threefold conceptualization of scalar relations paying analytical attention to

This article is published as part of the Geografiska Annaler: Series B, Human Geography special issue “Palestinian Futures Anticipation, Imagination, Embodiments”, edited by Mikko Joronen, Helga Tawil-Souri, Merav Amir & Mark Griffiths. ABSTRACT In this paper, I examine the activities of internally displaced Palestinians as performative resistance against the settler-colonial dispossession. Since 1948

ABSTRACT This paper will map out the geographical contours of life in the Anthropocene borne out of the ruins produced by the particular relations of globalized capitalism and modernizing aspirations in Iceland. The focus on Iceland is in recognition of islands as scenes where these relations play out with particular intensity and visibility. Therefore, the paper will outline the island scene upon

ABSTRACT The central themes of this study are how housing tenure affects moving away from neighbourhoods with differing degrees of immigrant concentration in Stockholm and, comparing two cohorts, how the relationship between housing tenure, ethnic background and residential mobility develops over time. The findings reveal that the effect of housing tenure on moving varies marginally between neighbourhood

ABSTRACT This article explores a particular futural logic prevalent in Israel’s practices of governing Palestinian life in the West Bank: the governmentalizing of possibility through anticipation and uncertainty. We draw on long-term fieldwork focused on different West Bank contexts – checkpoints, farmland access and house demolitions – where governing functions via prospective futures that call people

ABSTRACT The objective of this research is to understand how new social and environmental practices are introduced and developed in clusters. From an international perspective and based on cluster literature, we propose that leading firms and supporting organizations are the main drivers of these practices. In particular, we work on the hypothesis that firms with solid international experience, innovative

ABSTRACT This article addresses the relationships between emotions and the law, and how they define public order and constitute emotional legal landscapes. Using the example of the litigation process of the censorship of Dries Verhoeven’s art installation Ceci n’est pas …  we explore the power of individual and collective emotions in acting as a stimulus to the evaluation of the acceptability and legality

ABSTRACT This article brings attention to the diversity of urban conditions, actors, agency, and development paths in contrast to the imperatives of urban entrepreneurialism and competitiveness. Rather than presupposing the critical role of exogenous sources of growth, the aim of the current paper is in exploring empirically the role of local agency in achieving continuity or change through the lens

ABSTRACT In this article, I analyze the politics of urbanization and competitiveness-led state spatial transformations through political narratives. By analyzing empirical material, I search for ways of reasoning and rationalities that disclose the dynamics of the depoliticization and politicization of different spatial transformations of urbanization. Based on extensive interviews, I argue that a

Triangulation is increasingly being seen as a concept that has lost clarity and become too broad to be of use. A new language is required to explain how and why researchers bring together multiple perspectives to study phenomena. By drawing on my own research experiences I propose ‘collage’ as a framework for using multiple methods in geography. This framework differs from triangulation in two important

ABSTRACT This article brings together philosophical anthropologist Hemuth Plessner’s views on identities with geographer Anssi Paasi’s concepts of border and boundary. Plessner viewed personal identity as a kind of ‘void’ able to coordinate internal and external personal relations in such a way that an imagined unity unfolds. This happens through a process of individuation understood as both at once
