Post-Melancholia Belfast: Street Art, Tourism, and the Contested Visions of a Wounded City

In the commercial districts of City Centre, Cathedral Quarter, and the Titanic Quarter, street art and other tourist attractions like the Titanic Museum offer a sanitized past or ignore the city’s troubled history altogether. In the working-class districts of North, East, and West Belfast, political murals mark territories and serve as cease…

Aversive racism, gentrification, and graffiti studies
Bloch and Meyer's article argues that critical gentrification studies need to stop being beholden to mapping and counting of dislocated bodies, focusing mostly on “measuring the invisible,” and instead should understand displacement as an ongoing phenomenon, one that not only removes bodies from an environment, but is materially felt within spaces through technologies of racial discrimination, exclusion, and delinquency. This commentary relates t…
Managing authenticity and performance in Gulag Tourism, Kazakhstan
To date, there has been limited research concerning the methodology and approach to Gulag heritage and how it has been memorialised and commodified for tourism purposes. The recent cultural commodification of the Soviet past and the development of participatory visitor experiences at Gulag museums in Kazakhstan necessitate to advance understandings of the roles authenticity and performance play in the management of Gulag museum practices in the c…
The history of dark tourism
It may be categorically unpleasant to visit cemeteries, crash sites, and death camps, but tourists queue up to see such places. Scholars have been attempting to explain this fascination with the macabre and morbid since the mid-1990s. Early analyses of dark tourism highlighted the modern and postmodern motivations underlying this novel form of travel. As a result, much of the subsequent work on this phenomenon has concentrated on contemporary vis…
Working-Class Literature(s): Historical and International Perspectives

These essays map a substantial terrain: the history of working-class literature(s) in Russia/The Soviet Union, The USA, Finland, Sweden, The UK, and Mexico. Together they give a complex and comparative – albeit far from comprehensive – picture of working-class literature(s) from…

Assembling a Revolution: Graffiti, Cairo and the Arab Spring
This essay examines the ways revolutionary desire was articulated and interpreted through graffiti in Cairo, Egypt during the Arab Spring and its immediate aftermath. For writers in Cairo, graffiti was one of many in a constellation of resistances that undermined everyday life in Hosni Mubarak's Egypt and the SCAF-controlled interim government. Ordinary surfaces of the city were illegally marked, displaying revolutionary potentiality by allowing …

Employing the metaphor of the Greek mythological figure Daedalus, the essay addresses some of the problems and solutions of contemporary art music as it approaches the end of the twentieth century. With references to early music theory, psychology, and future computer-generated possibilities mixing chance and certainty, a framework is established for examining the issue. In this context, the experience of the late twentieth-century composer, musi…
