Decolonizing the Spear-Thrower
Historically, much of the archaeological research on spear-throwers has been in the context of comparison with bow and arrow technologies, revealing a colonialist preoccupation with technologies more familiar to Europeans while exoticizing other projectile delivery systems. The commonly used term “atl-atl” from Nahuatl is culturally specific, which at best obscures the existence of multiple regional traditions and independent innovation and devel…
Ageing in an Age of Permacrisis
Through the lens of the Uncertain Futures project, this article uncovers what is like to grow old in an age of permacrisis, how inequalities are impacted by crisis and how crises can exacerbate existing inequalities facing older persons. The article seeks to uncover the role of the law in tackling these inequalities and the normative obstacles to achieving equality. These include the exceptionalism often associated with age-based discrimination a…

Eyeing ID
Personal identification (ID) is a prerequisite to many financial and social services; however, many vulnerable residents do not have ID and lack the resources to acquire it. To assess the impact of ID inaccessibility in a local context, a study was conducted throughout New Brunswick, Canada. The study objective was to understand the implications of ID requirements and the barriers to acquiring it through the lens of consumers. This mixed-methods,…
Illustrating Everyday Life
This Beyond the Text submission presents a series of three graphic magazines (zines) as part of a research project about how people living with dementia experience their neighbourhoods and communities of place. The zines were produced through a collaboration of a graphic artist, academics and a small group of people living with dementia and/or family carers. The zines were designed to reflect the wider findings of the research. The idea to produc…
From story to heartbeats
Stories have the potential to emotionally and cognitively absorb us, and the degree to which audiences become immersed in narrative content (e.g. films, plays) is reflected in synchronization of their physiological response, including heart-rate. This heart-rate synchrony (HRS) has been repeatedly demonstrated in laboratory-based studies using pre-recorded content such as television or film. For live events, HRS has so far only been demonstrated …

Embracing Complexity Within Creative Approaches to Dementia Research
In this paper, we present reflections from three research studies that have engaged with creative approaches to qualitative research with people living with dementia. Creative approaches to qualitative research are increasingly advocated within dementia research as they foreground alternative routes to expression and can facilitate flexible, meaningful participation. Such approaches are typically cited as illuminating people's lived experiences a…
Performance in the Zócalo
Ana Martínez’s Performance in the Zócalo: Constructing History, Race, and Identity in Mexico’s Central Square from the Colonial Era to the Present names the Zócalo, a large, open plaza located in the historical center of Mexico City, as a site of contestation of national identity within Mexico. Using the work of Diana Taylor, Leo Cabranes-Grant, and Henri Lefebvre (among others), Martínez argues that the performance of the Zócalo space, as well a…
Getting lost with dementia
In this paper we explore the experience and implications of getting lost with dementia. While getting lost has become culturally emblematic of dementia, speaking as it does to a widespread fear of losing our place in the world, it is marked by an overall absence of critical attention. We argue that this critical hesitancy is part of a broader unease with 'dementing' that reveals a paradox in dementia scholarship as growing emphasis on strengths-b…
Beyond the shrinking world
‘Dementia-friendly communities’ herald a shift toward the neighbourhood as a locus for the care and support of people with dementia, sparking growing interest in the geographies of dementia care and raising questions over the shifting spatial and social experience of the condition. Existing research claims that many people with dementia experience a ‘shrinking world’ whereby the boundaries to their social and physical worlds gradually constrict o…
Re-thinking and re-positioning ‘being in the moment’ within a continuum of moments
This article draws upon six social research studies completed by members of the Dementia and Ageing Research Team at The University of Manchester and their associated networks over an eight-year period (2011–2019) with the aim of constructing a definition of ‘being in the moment’ and situating it within a continuum of moments that could be used to contextualise and frame the lived experience of dementia. Using the approach formulated by Pound et …
Taking time
Dementia is a global health challenge and currently the focus of a coordinated international response articulated through the notion of 'dementia-friendly communities and initiatives' (DFCIs). Yet, while increasing research attention has been paid to the social and spatial dimensions to life with dementia in a neighbourhood setting, the temporalities of dementia have been largely overlooked. This article sets out different aspects of the lived ex…
It's our pleasure, we count cars here’
The extent of social isolation experienced by people living with dementia who reside in the community has been well acknowledged, yet little is known about how people living alone with dementia maintain neighbourhood-based connections. The purpose of this study is to examine the experiences of people with dementia who live alone, focusing upon how they establish social networks and relationships in a neighbourhood context, and how they are suppor…
Neighbourhoods as relational places for people living with dementia
An increase in the number of people living independently with dementia across the developed world has focused attention on the relevance of neighbourhood spaces for enabling or facilitating good social health and wellbeing. Taking the lived experiences and daily realities of people living with dementia as a starting point, this paper contributes new understanding about the relevance of local places for supporting those living with the condition. …
Participatory social network map making with family carers of people living with dementia
This article focuses on the use of a participatory social network mapping method with family carers. This is one of a suite of methods developed in a 5-year qualitative multi-centre project exploring how neighbourhoods support, enable or disable people with dementia and their families to live well in their communities. The article considers how mapping provides insights into family support networks, revealing the fluidity of support and care with…
We Shall Overcome'? The Good Friday/Belfast Agreement and the Memory of the Civil Rights Movement
While 2018 marks the twentieth anniversary of the signing of the Good Friday Agreement (GFA) in Northern Ireland, it also marks the fiftieth anniversary of the civil rights movement and the protests of 1968. One of the key innovations of the Agreement is that it makes issues of rights central to the broader consociational framework, with the entirety of section 6 devoted to ‘Rights, Safeguards and Equality of opportunity.’ This reinforces a perce…
From Armed Struggle to Political Struggle
The recently released documents of the Irish and British governments from the early to mid-1980s indicate the concern felt at those levels by the rise of Sinn Féin in Northern Ireland, despite the party attaining consistently only 10–11 per cent of the vote. Were we to have access to government papers from the 1990s, particularly after 1998 (when Sinn Féin became the largest nationalist party in the North), we would probably find evidence of esca…
“A Lot of Things Passed Me by”
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to examine rural Appalachian Kentucky stroke survivors' and caregivers' experiences of receiving education from health care providers with the long-term goal of optimizing educational interactions and interventions for an underserved population. METHODS: An interprofessional research team, representing nursing, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech language pathology, conducted a qualitative desc…
Living with uncertainty
Across the world, an early and timely diagnosis of dementia is seen to be a policy and practice imperative and a necessary step in order to live well with the condition. However, limited understanding exists regarding the personal and relational meanings attributed to the diagnostic experience. Drawn from the findings of a larger multi-site study conducted in four areas of England, this article presents a subset of the data where five participant…
From protest to pragmatism

Assembling the salon
This article explores the labour and experiences of a hitherto entirely overlooked section of the dementia care workforce: care-based hairdressers. Reporting on findings from the ESRC-funded 'Hair and Care' project, the analysis and discussion focus upon the 'doing of hair' in the context of dementia care. The authors challenge existing assumptions and approaches to the management of appearance in dementia care, arguing for greater recognition of…
A mixed-method examination of food marketing directed towards children in Australian supermarkets
The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of children's food requests, and parents' experiences of food marketing directed towards children, in the supermarket environment. A mixed-method design was used. Firstly, intercept interviews were conducted with parents accompanied by a child/children on exiting supermarkets (sampled from a large regional centre in Australia). Parents were asked about the prevalence and types of food requ…
Once I had money in my pocket, I was every colour under the sun’
Appearance and the work invested in it by and for people with dementia are a neglected issue within dementia studies. In policy and practice there exists an assumption that the role of supporting a person to manage their appearance is easily assumed by another within caring encounters, only to be subsumed within the daily task-oriented provision of care. This paper reports on interviews conducted as part of the Hair and Care project, which explor…

Migration, ethnicity and competing discourses in the job interview
This article, based on a unique data set of video-recorded job interviews, examines the institutional and personal discourses of the competency-based interview and how their synthesis produces an `authentic self '. The interview's requirement for the synthesis of work-based and personal identities is particularly disadvantaging to foreign-born minority ethnic candidates. Foreign-born candidates often lack access to British `job interview English'…

A controlled evaluation of rural regional perinatal care
The impact of a rural regional perinatal care (RPC) program was assessed by a quasi-experimental, controlled, population-based design. Outcome measures included changes in five-year average fetal and neonatal mortality rates as well as short-term obstetric and newborn morbidity. Declines in fetal and neonatal as well as birthweight specific mortality rates were observed for both pilot and control regions, for both races, and especially for 1501-2…

“Living With a Ball and Chain”
PURPOSE: Individuals in rural Appalachian Kentucky face health disparities and are at increased risk for negative health outcomes and poor quality of life secondary to stroke. The purpose of this study is to describe the experience of stroke for survivors and their caregivers in this region. A description of their experiences is paramount to developing tailored interventions and ultimately improving health care and support. METHODS: An interprofe…
