The ‘emotion arena’
This paper contributes to the literature on resistance and emotions by introducing the concept of ‘emotion arena’. Drawing on insights from emotional geography, the emotion arena conceptualizes how top-down efforts to regulate feelings – referred to as emotional power – interacts with bottom-up responses that can contest and reshape them. Through the case of Havana, Cuba the paper demonstrates how emotional resistance operates through continual n…
The multiscalar and dynamic nature of geopolitics
A call to action
Community Engaged Learning (CEL) is a pedagogical approach that involves students, community partners, and instructors working together to analyze and address community-identified concerns through experiential learning. Implementing community-engagement in geography courses and, specifically, in GIS courses is not new. However, while students enrolled in CEL GIS courses critically reflect on social and spatial inequalities, GIS tools themselves a…
More-Than-Human Geopolitics
Geopolitical processes cross spatial scales and are shaped by human and non-human actors and dimensions. We apply assemblage theory to study the cross-border relations in the Gulf of Saint-Malo, a complex marine region where Brexit resurfaced a dispute about the territorialisation and use of marine space. Using semi-structured interviews and participant observations, we demonstrate that past and current fisheries management regimes were unable to…
A Polanyian Framework for Analyzing a Diverse Black-Market Economy in Cuba
Inspired by Carmen Diana Deere's work, we examine how planned economies, markets and communal economies interrelate to co-produce Cuba's agricultural economy. We show the variety of noncapitalist practices interrelated with and embedded in the black market and how these interactions produce diverse ethics. We build on a geographic interpretation of Karl Polanyi's substantive understanding of the economy and on geographic literature on the informa…
Bottom-up Geopolitics and Everyday Brexits at the Gibraltar-Spain Border
Brexit has opened doors for renewed attention to contested, multi-scalar geopolitical forces grounded in everyday life in borderlands. In this paper, we aim to unravel ‘everyday Brexits’ in the Gibraltar–La Línea (Spain) borderlands. By studying the 2019 commemoration of the historic 1969 border closure, we concentrate on how local borderwork by residents is mobilised for bottom-up geopolitics in the context of Brexit negotiations. We use a conce…
Spatializing Solidarity
Scholars and social movements have long studied how cooperative values of solidarity and democracy can spill over to the rest of the society. However, such studies have failed to develop a sociospatial theory of solidarity. Focusing on two types of agricultural cooperatives in Cuba, this paper draws on recent geography literature on solidarity to explore the sociospatial dimensions of cooperative solidarity. We find that cooperatives represent a …
Cuban migrants and the making of Havana’s property market
The emerging literature on the globalization of real estate has addressed how internationally circulating capital has increasingly found its ways into housing markets of the “Global South”. With relatively underdeveloped financial and real estate markets, these countries have discursively and materially been rebranded as emerging markets, that is, they have been shaped into frontiers in the global urbanization of capital. In this paper we scrutin…
Illegal or unethical? Situated ethics in the context of a dual economy
In this paper, I draw on my experiences doing field research in Cuba, to contribute to the idea that participating in illegal activities is not necessarily unethical. Using a reflexive analysis, I argue that as a foreign researcher in Cuba's dual economy, full participation in Cubans' daily life-though illegal for both the researcher and the participants-was necessary to establish trust. This allowed me to gain social access to the field while al…
My best geographer’s dress
In this paper, we draw on our personal experiences with the perpetuating gender bias in (early-career) academia, more specifically within geography. We develop two main arguments. First, we argue that everyday academic practices stand in sharp contrast with the critical content geography, as a discipline, aims to study and teach - including its feminist, anti-colonial, and queer understandings. Strikingly, geography as a field does not seem able …
