Decolonising the psychology curriculum
Over the past decade, there have been increasing calls to decolonise the Psychology curriculum. However, decolonisation initiatives have been criticised for being superficial and insufficient. In this study we explored Psychology faculty members’ perceptions and experiences with decolonisation at a UK university. Twenty participants engaged in semi-structured interviews, discussing views on higher education, current issues in Psychology, and deco…
Diffraction in Textiles-Based Community Craft Groups
Textile-based community crafts are often described as an intervention for bringing people together, improving social connectedness and reducing loneliness. This article draws on Barad’s (2007) method/concept of diffraction to offer a different way of understanding connection and belonging in textile-based community craft groups. In doing so, it considers how artefacts of sewing contributed to the emergence of connections and a sense of belonging …
Faith, planning and changing multiculturalism
This paper draws on recent research on the construction of new religious buildings by diverse faith communities in the London Borough of Ealing in West London to compare the navigation of local planning processes in the realization of new permanent structures for worship. While existing research emphasizes barriers for minority faith communities, this paper suggests that faith communities are successful local actors able to navigate local plannin…
My Life is but a weaving
This article reflects on creative arts practice as a means to research the interrelationships of creativity and faith through discussion of a textile-based arts project undertaken with women of diverse religious backgrounds in West London. Building on research on the significance of vernacular religious textiles in community space and in domestic religious practice, the arts project developed a collective embroidery installation exploring the the…
The hidden geographies of religious creativity
Religious activity, particularly as associated with what might be called everyday organized religion, has been unconsidered in recent discussions of the geographies and policies relating to creativity, and has been almost absent in the discipline of Geography's recent 'creative turn'. We argue both that religion has been given little or no attention in academic discussions of vernacular creativity, while arts policy as it developed in the United …
Ethnic and Religious Diversity in the Politics of Suburban London
The notion of ‘suburbia’ is increasingly useless as a singular, simple description of place, identity or political culture. Focusing particularly on ethnic and religious diversity highlights the intensely differentiated nature of outer London. The tropes of ‘Metroland’, and ‘leafy suburbia’ deflect from recognition of this diversity, and the broadly‐found expectations about patterns of migration, suburbanisation and cultural change loosely associ…
Living, changing light’
The creativity of religious art and practice is largely ignored in discussions of urban creativity. In this paper the importance of religious creativity in the making of suburban space is explored through a focus on the role of artists in two Christian churches in West London. Drawing on an analysis of two female stained glass artists, working in different time periods and religious contexts, this paper suggests the significance of churches as si…
Class, ethnicity and religion in the Bengali East End
The Bangladeshi community in East London is more associated with deprivation and disadvantage than it is with political activism. However, in this insightful book Glynn charts the political mobiliz
Shifting markers of identity in East London's diasporic religious spaces
This article discusses the historical and geographical contexts of diasporic religious buildings in East London, revealing - contrary both to conventional narratives of immigrant integration, mobility, and succession and to identitarian understandings of belonging - that in such spaces and in the concrete devotional practices enacted in them, markers and boundaries of identity (ritual, spatial, and political) are contested, renegotiated, erased, …
E-cigarette use and intentions to smoke among 10-11-year-old never-smokers in Wales
E-cigarettes represent a new form of childhood experimentation with nicotine. Findings are consistent with a hypothesis that children use e-cigarettes to imitate parental and peer smoking behaviours, and that e-cigarette use is associated with weaker antismoking intentions
The poetics of nationalism
This article aims to unsettle the now accepted correlation of novel/nation within postcolonial studies by demonstrating that poetry can be a "national" form in societies with limited literacy such as East Pakistan/Bangladesh, due to its capacity for oral dissemination. Drawing my examples from the poetry and songs of the East Pakistani resistance to state oppression that eventually led to secession and the creation of Bangladesh, I argue that poe…
Continuity of care for carers of people with severe mental illness
INTRODUCTION: Continuity of care has been demonstrated to be important for service users and carer groups have voiced major concerns over disruptions of care. We aimed to assess the experienced continuity of care in carers of patients with both psychotic and non-psychotic disorders and explore its association with carer characteristics and psychological well-being. METHODS: Friends and relatives caring for two groups of service users in the care …

Sustaining Ready-made Garment Exports from Bangladesh
This paper analyses the main drivers of growth, challenges faced and performance of ready-made garment (RMG) manufacturing in Bangladesh following the abolition of the Multi-Fibre Arrangement (MFA). It provides evidence to show that both national and international MFA quotas did provide Bangladesh garments with access to guaranteed international markets. However, as shown by the rising export volumes and market shares of Bangladesh RMG over the p…

Language, Gender and Citizenship
A key element of the Government's citizenship strategy is the requirement that all immigrants have a basic command of English. The lack of English speaking skills has been identified as a contributory factor to much of the social unrest amongst different communities in the UK. It has been argued that the ability to speak English will allow immigrants to integrate better, create more cohesive communities and reduce segregation. This paper will que…
Habitus and Bureaucratic Routines', Cultural and Structural Factors in the Experience of Informal Care
This article draws on Bourdieu's notion of habitus to address the interaction between cultural and structural factors in influencing the experience of informal care among Bangladeshi women in London. The authors present a secondary analysis of a qualitative study focusing on the accounts of informal care. The data were drawn from a two-year study with Bangladeshi women aged 35-55. Thirty-two out of the 100 women in the original study were providi…
