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…
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…
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
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…
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 …
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…
The 1919 'race riots' - Within and beyond exceptional moments in South Shields and Glasgow
W.W.J. Knox and A. McKinlay, Jimmy Reid
Expanding labour geographies
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…
