Embodied counter-mapping of gendered urban violence and resistance across body-community–city territories in Rio de Janeiro
Reclaiming dignity through creative encounters among Brazilian women survivors of violence in London
Responding to recent calls for geography, especially urban and public geography, to engage more fully with the concept of dignity, this paper shows how feminist participatory arts-based approaches can facilitate the reclaiming of dignity among migrant women survivors of violence, an issue which has received surprisingly limited attention to date. We argue for feminist cultural geography to engage more fully with conceptualisations of dignity and …
Cartographies of Emergence of Latin American Communities and British Latinx Imaginaries in London
This paper explores Latin American communities in London through the conceptual lens of cartographies of emergence in translocational perspective suggesting that it provides a less binary approach than the more commonly used perspective of '(in)visibility'. This is informed by the empirical analysis of Latin American community-building through their negotiation of precarity and collective resistance. It also reflects on the contested nomenclature…
Creative translation pathways for exploring gendered violence against Brazilian migrant women through a feminist translocational lens
This paper explores how research on gendered violence among Brazilian migrant women in London has been translated through a range of creative engagements. It argues that these can challenge traditional forms of knowledge production, and advance intersectional feminist struggles through a logic of translocation. Yet it also challenges homogenous artistic encounters through developing ‘creative translation pathways’ which delineate different config…
Introduction
This introduction to the special issue on 'Arts-based approaches, migration and violence: intersectional and creative perspectives' highlights the complexities and paradoxes in relation to existing debates in the field. Drawing on the emerging body of rich work that has recognised the importance of arts-based approaches within research on migration and violence, the introduction provides a critical assessment of the nature of the connections betw…
Countermapping SDG 5 to address violence against women and girls in the favelas of Maré, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) remains one of the most significant problems affecting women globally with its elimination being central to achieving SDG 5 on gender equality. While information on its prevalence is increasing globally, this is often at the national scale with limited local-level data. Responding to feminist critiques of SDG 5 and target 5.2 in terms of the importance of capturing more nuanced data on grassroots women’s ex…
Building emotional-political communities to address gendered violence against women and girls during Covid-19 in the favelas of Maré, Rio de Janeiro
Although the intensification of direct and indirect gendered violence against women during the COVID-19 pandemic has been extensively reported globally, there is limited research on women's responses to it. Addressing calls to explore the relationships between emotional-affective atmospheres and politics during the pandemic as well as to centre analyses of gendered violence within geography, this paper explores how women in the favelas of Maré, i…
Navigating migrant infrastructure and gendered infrastructural violence
This paper explores some of the institutional and theoretical silences within debates on infrastructural violence with reference to migrant women survivors of gendered violence. Drawing from feminist thinking around structural and symbolic oppression, it develops the notion of gendered infrastructural violence to help understand how migrant women survivors navigate statutory and non-statutory institutions when seeking support. Empirically, the pa…
Impact of Covid-19 for Latin American business clusters in London
The purpose of this report is to shed light on the approach of Latin Elephant in the city of London and our experiences working directly with groups impacted by a form of regeneration that excludes Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) and other economically disadvantaged groups in processes of urban change during the COVID 19 pandemic. In this report we consider the role that research, community activism and protest have to play in our search …
Violência De Gênero E Desigualdade Racial Em Uma Pesquisa Com Mulheres No Território Conflagrado Do Conjunto De Favelas Da Maré/Rio De Janeiro
Este artigo apresenta a análise de dados quanti-qualitativos de uma pesquisa realizada entre 2016 e 2018, sobre percepções das mulheres moradoras do conjunto de favelas da Maré, no Rio de Janeiro, quanto a violência de gênero, suas manifestações e formas de enfrentamento no território. Considerando que mulheres pretas e pardas são mais suscetíveis de serem afetadas por violências de gênero, verificou-se que os tipos de violência e os locais onde …

Urban Violence Against Women and Girls (Vawg) in transnational perspective
This article explores the nature of urban Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) among Brazilian migrants in London from a transnational perspective. Through adapting the continuum approach to understanding VAWG from a multi-scalar and non-hierarchical viewpoint, the article develops a ‘transnational continuum of urban VAWG’ highlighting the diversity of types of gender-based violence (GBV) across individual, community, city, state and transnati…
Feminized precarity among onward migrants in Europe
Increasingly turbulent forms of mobilities are emerging in Europe as diverse groups of migrants arrive, settle and move on. This paper explores this phenomenon of onward migration arguing that this is underpinned by various forms of feminized precarity. Challenging existing work on the feminization of precarity and migration that usually focuses on specific workers in situ, this paper explores the experiences of onward Latin American migrants (OL…
Onward Precarity, Mobility, and Migration among Latin Americans in London
Contributing to debates around the relationships between precarity, mobilities and migration, this paper examines the nature of precarity among onward Latin American ( OLA ) migrants as they have moved transnationally to multiple destinations from their homelands to southern Europe and onwards to London across different time periods. Drawing on primary research with over 400 OLA s, the discussion highlights how precarity maps onto onward migratio…
Placing diversity among undergraduate Geography students in London
This paper explores the idea of “place‐based diversity” to examine the nature of undergraduate Geography students’ attainment and progression with a specific focus on gender, ethnicity and socio‐economic status. In addressing the empirical neglect of progression when assessing inequalities in achievements among Geography students in general and the specific lack of research at the departmental level, the paper contributes to debates on challengin…
Ambivalent citizenship and extraterritorial voting among Colombians in London and Madrid
In this article, we explore the nature of extraterritorial voting among Colombian migrants in the 2010 elections in London and Madrid. To address the neglected issue of why voter turnout from abroad has been so low, we take into account the views of voters and non-voters alike to show that, while the external vote privileges the professional and well educated, this does not mean that migrants are not interested in politics back home. Drawing on B…

Everyday urban violence and transnational displacement of Colombian urban migrants to London, UK
Most research on the mobility outcomes of violence focuses on Internally Displaced Peoples (IDPs) or refugees displaced in response to armed conflict. The influence of everyday urban violence on population movements has been largely invisible, especially transnationally. This paper addresses these issues in relation to transnational migration and displacement among Colombians in the United Kingdom. Cities in the global South have porous violence …

This paper examines the nature and paradoxes of the relationship between urbanization and gender-based violence, especially violence against women. It highlights how such violence varies according to geographic scale as well as a range of other causal and contextual processes in cities of the global South. The discussion highlights that while the underlying causes of gender-based violence rooted in patriarchal relations are ubiquitous across plac…

Constructing transnational social spaces among Latin American migrants in Europe
This paper examines the construction of transnational social spaces among Latin American migrants living in the UK in relation to their multiple connections with homelands and other European countries, especially Spain. Drawing on Bourdieu’s forms of capital approach, it explores how transnational practices underpin the functioning of these spaces in relation to how civic, economic, institutional cultural and social capital are mobilized, convert…
The Gendering of Political and Civic Participation among Colombian Migrants in London
In this paper we examine how Colombian migrants participate in formal and informal political and civic activities in London. Drawing on qualitative and quantitative research conducted between 2005 and 2009, we explore how gender regimes change as people move across borders and how this affects political and civic participation. Although the gendered patterns of participation partly reflect research elsewhere, in terms of men's stronger involvemen…
Migrant machismos
This article examines the complex gendered migration experiences of Latin American women and men migrants in London, an under-studied yet increasingly important ‘new migrant group’ in the UK. Conceptually, it combines a typology of gendered outcomes of migration, together with the ‘gendered geographies of power’ framework that also incorporates intersectionality. This allows for a holistic analysis from a multi-scalar perspective across household…
A Migrant Ethic of Care? Negotiating Care and Caring among Migrant Workers in London's Low-Pay Economy
A care deficit is clearly evident in global cities such as London and is attributable to an ageing population, the increased employment of native-born women, prevalent gender ideologies that continue to exempt men from much reproductive work, as well as the failure of the state to provide viable alternatives. However, while it is now acknowledged that migrant women, and to a lesser extent, migrant men, step in to provide care in cities such as Lo…
Keeping London working
This paper explores the emergence of a new ‘migrant division of labour’ in London. In contrast to a vision of ‘professionalization’, it shows that London's labour market has been characterized by processes of occupational polarization and that a disproportionate number of London's low‐paid jobs are now filled by foreign‐born workers. Drawing on original survey data, the paper explores the pay and conditions of London's low‐paid migrant workers an…
Men on the move
The impact of migration on gender identities, norms and conventions has been predominantly understood from the perspective of female migrants. Far less attention has been paid to the potential that migration entails for the negotiation and reconstruction of male identities. Drawing on sixty-seven in-depth interviews with male migrants employed in low-paid work in London, this paper explores the reworking of male identities at different stages of …
Latin American Urban Violence as a Development Concern
London's Migrant Division of Labour
This article is located in the maelstrom of debate about immigration and employment in the contemporary economy. The article presents original analysis of data from the Labour Force Survey and a workplace case-study in the cleaning sector to highlight growing employer dependence on a very diverse pool of foreign-born labour. The article explains such dependency by drawing on interview material collected from employers, employers' associations, co…

Geography and development
Violence and crime are not new phenomena in the field of development theory and practice. Since the nineteenth century there has been an assumed link between violence, crime and societal development (Rogers, 1989). In the 1990s, however, the issue of violence has taken on particular significance. This is partly because of the perceived concentration of crime and violence in the countries of the South. For instance, Africa is currently viewed as t…

Multicultural Living
Since the 1990s migrants from smaller, legally differentiated and non-citizen immigrant groups have formed the main flows of migration to the UK and yet they have been overlooked in academic and public debates and agendas. While much academic research has been devoted to racism, the new forms of racism which accompany the `new migration' have also received little attention. This article, therefore, demonstrates the continuing importance and chang…

The new development finance or exploiting migrant labour
This paper challenges the recent hailing of migrant remittances as a panacea for development finance in countries of the global South. It argues that such a viewpoint fails to recognise the costs to migrant workers of remitting. Many of these workers reside in the industrialised countries of the global North. Based on an empirical investigation of low-paid migrant workers in London, this paper highlights the nature of remittance sending, the ofte…

From Feminising to Engendering Development
Feminists have been crucial in challenging the gender-blindness of development discourse and practice. In the process, they have shaped the move from the feminisation to the engendering of development over the last three decades. This article explores this broad shift, focusing on the recent transformations within gender and development discourse and feminist approaches to development relating to diversity and representation, human rights, and th…
From Local to Global to Transnational Civil Society
This article outlines the meanings of civil society covering theoretical and development policy debates. It traces the evolution of conceptualisations of civil society noting how diversity in type, function and scale are critical in understanding these changes. The role of non-governmental organisations within development policy is explored highlighting how the euphoria over civil society has been tempered over time, reflecting how Gramscian inte…

Endangered Youth? Youth, gender and sexualities in urban Botswana
Age is now recognised as a significant social cleavage in research on youth in the South. Using participatory urban appraisal methodologies, this article explores constructions of sexualities among urban youth in Botswana, a country that is currently experiencing an HIV/AIDS epidemic and high levels of teenage pregnancy. We argue that not only are young people sophisticated sexual beings, but that there is a need to adopt more holistic approaches…

Religion at work
This paper makes a contribution to debate about the intervention of religious organizations in matters of industrial relations, labour markets and public policy in relation to work.

It challenges the tendency to generalise about civil society, warning against its glorification as a panacea. In a critique of the liberal approach to civil society, commonly used among international agencies, the discussion highlights how civil society org…
Participatory urban appraisal and its application for research on violence
This paper emphasizes the importance of conducting participatory research on violence and describes the range of participatory urban appraisal tools that can be used to do so. This includes tools that can document the perceptions of poorer groups regarding the kinds of violence (economic, social or political), the extent, causes (and the links with poverty and exclusion) and consequences of violence, as well as the strategies for coping with or r…

Empowered leaders'? Perspectives on women heading households in Latin America and Southern Africa
Although development research, policy, and practice have focused extensively on women-headed households, the subject is rarely couched in terms of leadership. Drawing on case studies from Guatemala and Botswana, this paper focuses on perceptions of women heads of households in wider society; the extent to which positive images of female leadership have filtered to the grassroots; and the question of whether and how female leadership styles differ…

Poverty, violence and livelihood security in urban Colombia and Guatemala
Set within the context of re-conceptualizing poverty to emphasize its multidimensionality, this paper argues for the need to extend existing debates on livelihood security to incorporate notions of physical and personal security, manifest in the form of violence and conflict. In turn, it suggests that research on security should continue its shift in focus towards human security, especially at the micro-level. These arguments are based on primary…

From Coping Strategies to Tactics
This article examines the means by which low‐paid migrant workers survive in a rapidly changing and increasingly unequal labour market. In a departure from the coping strategies literature, it is argued that the difficulties migrant workers face in the London labour market reduces their ability to ‘strategize’. Instead, workers adopt a range of ‘tactics’ that enable them to ‘get by’, if only just, on a day‐to‐day basis. The article explores these…
