Making connections through intimacy writing
This paper considers the value of writing in human geography. It comments on forms of writing that reflect on personal experience to inform our understanding of questions of power and social difference. We offer a methodological reflection for connecting writing as practice with understanding social difference, as well as applying these ideas to our study of youth identities. Through close engagements with writing, as both method and textual evid…
Archival encounters
This paper reflects on the archival encounter. In our discussion, we consider interactions between researchers and more troubling and violent materials, specifically industrial death and injury, held within archives. We contribute to ongoing methodological thought within historical geography by drawing on literature relating to archival encounters, fragments, and labour injustice as a means to unpack archival interactions. We specifically conside…
Trade unions and labour market inactivity
This article considers the relationship between trade unions and labour market inactivity by exploring the experiences of trade union activists beyond the workplace. The article considers the perspective of retired trade unionists as well as those who find themselves unemployed. The article is particularly interested in the enduring and evolving nature of trade unionism, as well as considering a sense of belonging whereby union members feel they …
Organising at the margins
Drawing from past examples of marginal worker organising, this paper engages with the diverse spatial politics of labour to reflect on questions of worker resistance within and beyond the workplace. This contribution connects with challenges faced by the trade union movement and ongoing academic commentary across labour geography and industrial relations more broadly. In doing so, we combine literature around worker organising margins and trade u…
Racialised violence
This short intervention offers a historical geography-informed approach to shape understandings of the events and racialised violence of summer 2024 in the United Kingdom. We draw upon Black British Cultural Studies to foreground the importance of temporality and spatial relations for understanding racialised violence. In doing so, we identify continuities across 100 years of racialised violence in Britain whilst also noting important differences…
Whose geography do we review
In the context of discipline‐wide efforts to produce more inclusive, just, and equitable norms of geographical knowledge production, section editors for Geography Compass identify five concrete practices by which to address systemic inequities, injustices, and exclusions through their editorial work
Experiencing (dis)comforting pedagogies
In this paper we reflect on our experiences teaching human geography across two modules that pedagogically centre student reflexivity through content that has potential to be dis-comforting. Drawing upon student experiences on two final year option modules, relating to social and spatial exclusion and “race”, ethnicity and multiculture, we reflect on how learning experiences on these modules “stay with” students in ways that are potentially trans…
Unemployed Workers’ Centres (1978–)
This paper revisits the histories of Unemployed Workers’ Centres to consider the politicisation of unemployment in the UK. Drawing upon archive material and over 50 oral histories, it considers the emergence of centres as a response to a crisis of increasing unemployment and retrenchment of the welfare state. The paper indicates how Asef Bayat’s concept of “non‐movement” proves useful for capturing a wider sphere of labour organising, moving beyo…
Solidarity on the move
This paper revisits the 1981 People's March for Jobs as a moment of unemployed activism and solidarity in the UK. The paper argues that the march revealed a spatial politics of solidarity as characterised through mobility, presence, imaginaries and dialogue. It considers how the march emerged through trade union organising and forged political alliances in articulating opposition against rising unemployment, challenging the associated stigma arou…
Resistance
The ability for individuals or collectives to challenge, reject, re‐imagine, and reshape conditions has become crucial within geographers' efforts to capture societal relations. How best to characterize these oppositional acts, though, has prompted much reflection and critical thought within the discipline. The language of resistance is where this reflection is often centered upon. What counts as resistance, who is able to resist, where might we …
Outside the Eye of the Storm
High-intensity disaster can harm psychological functioning. Could moderate-intensity disaster improve psychological and attachment functioning through its effects on social functioning? We used a prospective quasi-experimental cohort design to investigate this possibility among college students. Hurricane cohort participants ( N = 209) completed assessments before, 2 weeks, and 6 weeks after Hurricane Sandy. Two matched comparison cohorts ( Ns > …
Contemporary labour geographies within changing places
This article recognises the contributions of workers and more broadly the significance of work within economic geography. It considers how engaging with labour experiences provides an accessible vantage point to consider much wider debates and issues. By doing so, the article suggests that the increasingly well-established sub-field of labour geography has much to offer for geographers to consider wider economic processes as experienced ‘from bel…

Expanding labour geographies
Labour, carcerality and punishment
This paper brings together carceral and labour geographies to highlight new research avenues and empirical gaps. Despite valuable engagements with unfree and precarious work by labour geographers and substantial developments within carceral geography around carceral circuitry and intimate economies of detention, punitive aspects of work remain largely under-theorised within labour geography, while the political economy of carceral labour is relat…

Geography Compass
Making usable pasts
The precarious labour geography of shaping political left histories is raised in this paper to engage with and deepen accounts of the archive within geography and beyond. The focus of the paper is on the provision of radical history in Glasgow through two archive collections within the city. The analysis raises the politics of archival research practices and is positioned within a context of increasingly difficult economic circumstances for libra…
Labour struggles and the formation of demands
Spatial relations, histories from below and the makings of agency
In this paper we propose a conversation between work in labour history and labour geography, in part centring on the formative contribution of E.P. Thompson. We contend that the commitment to multiple and political forms of agency and working-class experience and the positioning of class as process, which are lasting contributions of The Making of the English Working Class, offer resources for re-invigorating debates on agency within labour geogr…

This chapter presents a more general view of the zone of proximal development than ordinarily encountered in the American psychological literature. It refers to Soviet influence on Vygotsky and presents examples from work, play, and educational activities involving elementary-school-age American children
Locating tasks in psychology and education∗
The issue is raised: How does performance on one occasion relate to performance on another occasion? This is a problem both for practitioners and researchers working in classrooms and for psychologists concerned with the relation between results obtained on laboratory tasks and everyday performances. Naturally occurring events lack the constraints of the laboratory, making it difficult to compare one event to the next or to evaluate performance a…
