  • Introduction
    NEL1 9/23/2004 1:21 PM Page 1 Chapter 1 Introduction Lise Nelson and Joni Seager The Poetics of Bodies, Spaces, Place, and Politics my womb a public domain erotica a doormat trampled on by birthright my womb a legislated periphery no longer mine but public space my womb a palestinian front fighting for the right to be a private space “My Womb” by Esmeralda Bernal (reprinted with permission from the publisher of The Americas Review, Houston: Arte Publico Press–University of Houston, 1986) The ideas and materialities woven into Bernal’s poem evoke some of the key insights and sites of feminist geography. Locating her poem within the gendered body, Bernal weaves together the politics of public and private space, the state and nationalism. While no single poem can represent the diverse issues and questions in feminist geog- raphy, the centrality of the body in her poem is significant. Only a few decades after feminists levered “woman” and “gender” into the lexicon of geographic thought, it is “the body” and the multidimensionality of embodied experience(s) that con- tinue to anchor feminist geography at the dawn of the twenty-first century. NEL1 9/23/2004 1:21 PM Page 2 2 LISE NELSON AND JONI SEAGER The body is the touchstone of feminist theory. Within contemporary feminist theory “the body” does not have a single location or scale; rather it is a concept that disrupts naturalized dichotomies and embraces a multiplicity of material and symbolic sites, ones located at the interstices of power exercised under various guises. From the pivotal second-wave feminist understanding that “the personal is political” to the postmodern decentering of a singular notion of gendered experi- ence, feminist theory draws on understandings of embodied experience to funda- mentally challenge bedrocks of Western social and political thought.

  • Marxism and Geography in the Anglophone World
    Essay Neil Smith Marxism and Geography in the Anglophone World In October 1997 an article appeared in the impeccably bourgeois magazine, the New Yorker, which championed Karl Marx as the “next new thinker”. Down on Wall Street, wrote John Cassidy, there is a new appreciation for Marx’s understanding of capitalism, and a sense that Marx anticipated brilliantly what so-called globalization was all about th (Cassidy 1997). The impending 150 anniversary of The Communist Manifesto intensified the clamour. As Marx and Engels famously wrote there, the bourgeoisie “creates a world after its own image”, and so with the dragon of international socialism apparently slain after 1989, despite local holdouts in Cuba and North Korea, and with Marx no longer the demon of capital, expectant young Wall Street financiers could embrace Marx’s vivid depiction of capitalism as a remarkably prescient portrait of the neo-liberal global order they themselves strove to create. Marx had brilliantly anticipated globalization, and Wall Street thought it was a good thing. But the “Marx boom” of 1997-98 quickly fizzled as capitalism itself turned sour. The Asian economic crisis exploded, Indonesia’s Suharto was overthrown in a deadly revolt, and the economic malaise spread to Brazil, Mexico and Russia. Marx, it seemed, still had a sting in his tail. Reading Das Kapital to understand how capitalism really worked was one thing. But the same Das Kapital also seemed to teach that economic depression was endemic to capitalism, the stock market was a giant swindle, the Asian economic crisis – rooted in overproduction in Thailand and generalized into the region’s currency and security markets – was a classic capitalist crisis, and that political struggle is equally endemic to capitalism.

  • International Geographical Union Commission on Gender and Geography
    INTERNATIONAL GEOGRAPHICAL UNION COMMISSION ON GENDER AND GEOGRAPHY Newsletter No. 55 November, 2015 From the Commission Chair Shirlena Huang, National University of Singapore The key event for the Commission since my last message was the 2015 IGU Regional Conference in Moscow on 7-21 August. Held at the imposing buildings of the Lomonosov Moscow State University (LMSU), the papers focused around the overall theme of “Geography, Culture and Society for Our Future Earth”. Our Commission organized 5 sessions, including two co-sponsored with other Commissions and each with 3-5 papers. Themes were: • Gendered Crime and Spaces • Factors Affecting Women’s Education: Gender, Space, Culture and Society • Gendered Life Courses • Gendered Activisms in Asia (co-organised with the Commission on Political Geography) • The Geographies of International Student Migration (co-organised with the Population Geography Commission) In addition, I had the honour of presenting a Plenary Lecture on behalf of the Commission as Recipient of the Inaugural IGU Award for Best Commission which we received in 2014. The paper, “A Continuing Agenda for Gender”, was a collaborative effort by Janet Momsen, Janice Monk, Maria Dolors Garcia Ramon, Joos Droogleever Fortuijn and myself. It discussed the challenges faced by and contributions of the Commission over its 27-year history, and also considered the role the Commission can continue to play in the future. The IGU Gender and Geography Commission has come a long way since it was first established as a Study Group at the 1988 IGU Congress in Sydney – not without some struggles given that gender was not then acknowledged by all geographers as an area worthy of geographical research.

  • Neil Smith, 1954-2012: Radical Geography, Marxist Geographer, Revolutionary Geographer
    1 Neil Smith, 1954-2012: Radical Geography, Marxist Geographer, Revolutionary Geographer Don Mitchell Department of Geography, Syracuse University and Advanced Research Collaborative, Graduate Center City University of New York September 29, 2013 "Although we found it easy to be brilliant, we always found it confusing to be good." Salman Rushdie, Midnight's Children (quotation found pinned to the bulletin board in Neil Smith’s study when passed away) Neil Smith hated hagiography. He would rail against it in his history and theory of geography seminars at Rutgers University in the early 1990s, holding up what he thought were particularly egregious examples: obituaries published in the Annals. Hagiography for Neil was the antithesis of what our disciplinary history ought to be: it was uncritical and celebratory, when what were needed were hard-nosed engagements with ideas, with real histories that understood ideas as the product of struggle and error as well as genius and insight. Even worse, hagiography extracted its subject from history, setting him (usually him) apart from the world as a lone genius rather than fully ensconcing him in messy social (and personal) practices, situating ideas within the social (and personal) histories from which they emerged. Hagiography had little room to show how what was genius in someone’s ideas might be inextricably linked to, indeed very much a function of both social context and what was flawed or less savory in that person. Hagiography denies that ideas are embodied. Neil’s ideas were embodied. 2 Indeed, David Harvey calls Neil “the perfect practicing Marxist – completely defined by his contradictions.”1 Born in Leith, the old port of Edinburgh, and raised one of four children of a school teaching father and homemaking mother in Dalkeith, a small working-class town to the southeast of the city, Neil had an indestructible passion for the natural world, starting with his native Midlothian landscape and quickly spiraling out, for birdwatching, and for gardening, and he became geography’s preeminent urban theorist.

  • Pluralizing Labor Geography Jamie Peck Introduction
    Pluralizing labor geography Jamie Peck Forthcoming in GL Clark, MP Feldman, MS Gertler & D Wójcik (eds) The New Oxford handbook of economic geography. Oxford: Oxford University Press Introduction: constructions of labor geography There are few issues that illustrate the differences between the generally heterodox field of economic geography and the more orthodox world of geographical Economics than the treatment of labor. In orthodox terms, labor principally appears as an abstraction, traded on labor markets at a price, the wage, which in turn is taken as a measure of human-capital endowments and the balance of supply and demand. In contrast, once economic geographers opened up the black box of the production function, starting after the late 1970s to venture into the workplace itself, labor would no longer be seen as a disembodied “factor” of production. Having begun to pose the “labor question,” economic geographers soon found themselves on the terrain of class and gender relations; they were dealing with politics and institutions, with industrial disputes, and more. This was the beginning of “labor geography,” the non-linear trajectories and shifting concerns of which are the focus of this chapter. Necessarily selective, the chapter cuts a path through a variegated and evolving body of work that amongst other things has mapped the shifting politics of production, together with old and new forms of labor organization; that has problematized the workplace, as a site of struggle and as a place for the performance and (re)production of social identities; that has tracked the restructuring of labor markets, as spaces of socioinstitutional stress and regulatory transformation; and that has utilized labor (and labor relations) as a diagnostic, as the key to understanding different (local) varieties of capitalism, economies of care and reproduction, and alternative modes of socioeconomic organization.

I know this script’s fixed from the start, because ordinary men and women only get supporting parts. — Chris Dean: “The Power is Yours” The notion of “spatial praxis” is firmly on the intellectual agenda in hu- man geography. The making of the economic and social landscape in particular ways is now recognized as being fundamental to the articula- tion of political power (cf. Harvey, 1982; Soja, 1989; Lefebvre, 1991). In this paper I argue, however, that whilst they recognize landscapes are socially constructed, many economic geographers and theorizers of the geography of the capitalist space-economy — both mainstream and Marxist — have tended either to ignore the role of workers in making the economic geogra- phy of capitalism or have frequently conceived of them in a passive man- ner. Although during the past two decades economic geographers have generated a considerable literature which seeks to understand how capital attempts to make the geography of capitalism in particular ways to facili- tate accumulation and the reproduction of capitalist social relations, there has been much less work which examines and attempts to theorize explic- itly how workers actively shape economic landscapes and uneven develop- ment.

Abstract This PhD dissertation project focuses on the collective agency of Thai organized workers—a group of regional migrant workers in one of Thailand’s most industrialized areas—whose labor geography and organizations were conditioned by Thai state-capital- labor relations. It examines how the social, political and geographical organizations of Thai workers shape their practices of labor activism. By linking workers’ ties to their place of origin with the new geography of automotive production in Thailand’s Eastern seaboard, this dissertation examines the agency of workers through labor activism and its relationships to migration—a geographical mechanism that bridges production and reproduction across workers’ multi-sited households. This dissertation builds on the critical traditions within Human Geography as well as the work of feminist geographers to center the role of households and cultural practices of labor activism. By bringing together processes of production and social reproduction often examined separately, it sheds light on the ways in which gender and class politics within labor activism are inextricably linked to the division of labor within spatially extended households of Thai migrant workers.

    The Geographies of the $15 Wage Movement: New Union Campaigns, Mobility Politics, and Local Minimum Wage Policies Megan Brown A dissertation Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Kim England, Chair Michael Brown Mark Ellis Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Geography ÓCopyright 2017 Megan Brown University of Washington Abstract The Geographies of the $15 Wage Movement: New Union Campaigns, Mobility Politics, and Local Minimum Wage Policies Megan Brown Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Kim England Geography The $15 wage movement has grown substantially since the first $15 minimum wage initiative was passed in SeaTac, Washington in 2013. This dissertation investigates the geographies of the $15 wage movement that has developed in the years since. Taking the form of a three-part comparative case study, this dissertation traces the connections and disconnections between $15 minimum wage campaigns in Seattle, Washington, Chicago, Illinois, and two cities in North Carolina, Greensboro and Durham. Drawing on one year of fieldwork and 101 interviews with policymakers, labor union staff, and activists, it argues that the $15 wage movement is an example of a broader shift in labor organizing that has taken root in the last decade, which takes labor organizing out of its traditional location within workplaces and into broader social, political, and economic geographies. This geographic shift in the location, scale, and organization of labor politics is a long-awaited response to the spatial reorganization of work that occurred gradually beginning in the 1970s, which has changed the potential spatiality of workplace solidarity.
