Being land, becoming research
This paper invites you into conversation about research accountability grounded in relationality and led by Gumbaynggirr Ngambaa ways of knowing. From this place in so‐called Australia, accountability is not a static or bureaucratic process, but an embodied living practice of respect, guided by existing protocols and relationships with and as Country. Engaging in the relational work of Yandaarra, including a story led by Liz about her PhD confirm…
Reframing more-than-human thinking as Country-led practice
The uptake of more-than-human thinking in geography seeks to centre the ways that our diverse life-worlds are sustained by interconnected and more-than-human relations. As a relatively new framework to the discipline, more-than-human thinking has offered different ways to address some of the world’s increasingly complex problems. But to what extent does this framework pay attention to the underlying context of Indigenous and settler colonial land…
Taking shadow infrastructures of care seriously
Caring well with people from migrant and refugee backgrounds in Australia relies on a complex web of care supports. Research into the kinds of care needed to create flourishing lives for these communities is growing. Within the Australian context, care is shaped by a web of interelated policies, frameworks and settlement expectations determined by the Australian Federal Government and constrained by ongoing neoliberal restructuring. However, many…

Strengths-based Gram Sabhas? Challenges and radical possibilities when ‘measuring’ poverty in India
Poverty as an object of study in India continues to be the domain of economists, statisticians and demographers. The National Sample Survey Organisation (NSS) serves as the main instrument of data collection to measure poverty relative to economic indicators. In this paper we draw on strengths-based research undertaken in an Indian village to foreground alternative ways of conceptualising and practising data collection when measuring poverty. Exp…
The Routledge Handbook of Global Development
This Handbook provides a comprehensive analysis of some of the world's most pressing global development challenges - including how they may be better understood and addressed through innovative practices and approaches to learning and teaching. Featuring 61 contributions from leading and emerging academics and practitioners, this multidisciplinary volume is organized into five thematic parts exploring: changes in global development financing, ide…
Spaces of well‐being and regional settlement
Regionalisation is a hallmark of Australia's approach to international migration, reflecting governments' growing concern with where new arrivals live. Residence in regional Australia is encouraged (mandated, for some visas) in response to urban population pressures alongside rural population and economic decline. Parallel to regionally focused visa schemes exists a pattern of voluntary urban‐to‐rural migration among some international migrants. …
Asylum Seeking, Border Security, Hope
Asylum seeking galvanises brutal state responses. The challenge of confronting the brutality of border security is understanding the elusive interlocking of knowledge and power that normalises technologies of securitisation, detention, and defiance of international conventions. In this paper we employ Marxist philosopher Ernest Bloch to interrogate the temporal horizon of border security discourse revealing the act of asylum seeking as a form of …
Ethics and consent in more‐than‐human research
A considerable body of recent work within the social sciences has attempted to engage more deeply with place, place‐based knowledge, and more‐than‐human agency. Yet what this might look like in relation to ethical research practice, especially in the case of research proceeding on unceded Indigenous lands, is unclear. Taking more‐than‐human agency seriously means ethical research practice must be extended beyond a human‐centric approach. As a Gum…
Creation, destruction, and Covid
On Gumbaynggirr Country (mid-north coast New South Wales, Australia), an act of violence against the sacredness of life and Country resulted in Wirriiga, the Two Sisters, making the sea. When the waters rose, the people made their way back to their homeland by following a gut-string bridge made by Dunggiirr, the Koala Brothers. While the people were on the bridge, mischievous Baalijin, the eastern quoll, threatened to chop it down and made waves …
Becoming Reading Group
In neoliberalising universities, collegial and collective practices such as reading groups are often positioned by students, staff and managers as less important than meeting individual KPIs (such as producing research publications, seeking research grants, or meeting the increasing demands of producing quality teaching outcomes.) However, reading groups can be vital for cultivating caring collectives and spaces of collegiality. In this paper we …
Yandaarra is living protocol
We call ourselves Yandaarra, which is Gumbaynggirr for a group shifting camp together. We are Aunty Shaa Smith, story holder for Gumbaynggirr Country (mid-north Coast, NSW, Australia), her daughter, Neeyan Smith and three non-Indigenous academics. In this article, we share the meaning of Yandaarra for our work together. We see Yandaarra as binding beings together, living the protocols of Maangun, the Law, of the Dreaming. We do not talk of Dreami…

In non-urban places of Australia, caring-as-Country frames natural resource management (NRM) as a practice of reciprocal, more-than-human care-giving (S. Suchet-Pearson, S. Wright, K. Lloyd, and L. Burarrwanga. 2013. ‘Caring as Country: towards and ontology of co-becoming in natural resource management.’ Asia Pacific Viewpoint 54 (2): 185–197). Caring-as-Country is an idea that encapsulates the entangled, reciprocal relationships that people have…
LetThemStay#BringThemHere
The body is the object of border protection. Yet the body remains largely outside reigning notions of the political in debates on bordering practices and challenges to it. Exploring what bodies do in their performativity as they negotiate and resist the securitisation of forced migration can open up new ways of understanding the disruptive potential of the body. In this paper, I draw on Judith Butler’s seminal work on contingency and norms of exi…
Value, Identity and Place
The practice of natural resource extraction remains a key function of the global economy, and has been the subject of a considerable body of research, across multiple academic disciplines. Growing awareness of the economic, socio-cultural and ecological aspects of extractive practices (and their impacts) have also forced change in the way in which this research is conceptualised. Yet, despite conceptual shifts, a lack of engagement with the felt …
Introduction
This collection of papers signals a resurgent development studies in Australia, a decade after an earlier long-standing incarnation had fallen away, raising questions of the sub-discipline's ongoing efficacy in geography. Ending this 10 -year hiatus, the Critical Development Study Group of the Institute of Australian Geographers came into being with a rush of new recruits representing a broad array of theoretical lineages and practical appeals. W…
Navigating dilemmas of community development
Intrinsically, community development involves navigating dilemmas. These dilemmas have intensified as neoliberal “arts of government” become more widespread and a “results agenda” more entrenched. Recent studies explore how community development practitioners manage the ambiguities of this current context. This article contributes by exploring how practitioners who work with Aboriginal communities in Central and Northern Australia navigate the di…
Governed freedom’ in O ceania
Drawing predominantly on the work of B utler, R ose and W alters, this paper examines the governing rationalities and technologies that characterise one particular site of aid relations. Focusing on key policy documents, economic surveys and performance reports, the paper traces the fashioning of particular subjectivities as constitutive of AusAID's development objectives and the function of problematisation and responsibilisation as central to t…
A grievable life? The criminalisation and securing of asylum seeker bodies in the 'violent frames' of Australia's Operation Sovereign Borders
To be Transformed
Students undertaking field-based learning, in which they work with Indigenous people in Northern Australia, describe a profound learning experience redolent with emotion. Inspired, challenged and transformed, the students are compelled in ways that require them to interrogate their own selves and taken-for-granted beliefs. In this paper, we draw on empirical work with undergraduate students in geography and development studies to investigate what…
A Progressive Authoritarianism? The case of post-2006 Fiji
Post-development has matured well beyond the romanticism and celebration of the local of its early proponents. The new ‘conditions of possibility’ that embody the latest contributions to the field are studies in governmentality. This paper explores the heterogeneous postcolonial spaces of post-2006 Fiji by deploying a Foucauldian analysis of Bainimarama's government, particularly focusing on the formation of identities and the attributes of a ‘no…
Revisiting 'how we learn' in academia
Ideas of ‘how we learn’ in formal academic settings have changed markedly in recent decades. The primary position that universities once held on shaping what constitutes learning has come into question from a range of experience‐led and situated learning models. Drawing on findings from a study conducted across three Australian universities, the article focuses on the multifarious learning experiences indicative of practice‐based learning exchang…

Indigenous Research
Decolonising research in geography is part of a broader 'reflexive' process which continues to question the positivist status of 'researcher as observer'. This paper contributes to this reflexive turn, drawing on the particular experiences of a cross-cultural Honours thesis. The paper is pursued through a parallel journey involving a non-Indigenous researcher (and author of the cross-cultural Honours thesis) engaging Indigenous research1 with int…
