Embedding Multiperspective Reflections in Co‐Producing a Training Intervention for Care Home Staff: Understanding Group Members' Journeys and Impacts
BACKGROUND: Co-production can be used to develop research, resources or interventions that are relevant for the groups they are co-produced with. We co-produced a training intervention to improve personal care assistance for people with dementia living in care homes. We aimed to reflect on the process to learn more about the co-production journeys of all group members and impacts. METHODS: A co-production group comprised of five care home staff, …
Do we really know what we’re trying to achieve? An investigation into the real content of coaching conversations
Purpose The paper aims to explore a divergence between organizational expectations of coaching and what actually happens. Coaching is assumed to start and end with goals and/or objectives that are intended to contribute to organizational performance. Exploring the main topics of coaching conversations and the way in which topics change within individual interventions, this paper questions the assumptions behind the commissioning, contracting and …

From Genghis Khan to Tamerlane: The Reawakening of Mongol Asia
An epic account of how a new world order under Tamerlane was born out of the decline of the Mongol Empire “A masterwork.”—William Dalrymple, Financial Times “A landmark publication.”—Noel Malcom, The Telegraph By the mid-fourteenth century, the world empire founded by Genghis Khan was in crisis. The Mongol Ilkhanate had ended in Iran and Iraq, China’s Mongol rulers were threatened by the native Ming, and the Golden Horde and the Central Asian Mon…

How Should Harm Reduction Strategies Differ for Adolescents and Adults
Overall rates of opioid use are low in adolescents; however, recent increases in mortality from overdose in adolescents have outpaced increases in the general population. This article highlights the importance of expanding evidence-based treatment for adolescent opioid use, especially medication, while also addressing key ethical considerations of harm reduction practices and how application of such practices with adolescents may differ from adul…
What do leaders really want to learn in a workplace? A study of the shifting agendas of leadership coaching
Multiple theories of leadership postulate specific capability requirements with an expectation that leaders recognize the need for such capabilities and become motivated to develop them. In the workplace, leaders’ development is also expected to respond to the immediate demands of the organizational context. However, what leaders end up learning in the workplace remains largely unexplored. Hence our inquiry is into what leaders choose to learn, w…
Western European Sources
Although most of Catholic Christendom escaped conquest by the Mongols, the West yields a comparatively broad and varied range of sources concerning the invaders and their empire. These include not only contemporary accounts of the onslaught of 1241–1242 on Hungary, but also narratives composed by Westerners who visited the Mongol world; geographical surveys, like Marco Polo’s description of Yuan China, reflecting the West’s considerably extended …
Theorising embodied interaction in coaching: A Merleau-Pontian perspective on embodied practice
Coaching has expanded as a method of facilitating individual change, performance, and learning. It is generally described in terms of its functions, referring to cognitive and organisational psychology as well as theories of change, theoretical stances, and methodologies from psychotherapy. Theoretical concern for the body as part of the meaning-making process has been piecemeal in coaching, despite growing interest in embodiment in psychology an…
Understanding national variations in reusable packaging: Commercial drivers, regulatory factors, and provisioning systems
Given the global environmental impacts associated with single-use plastics, alternatives are being considered, including the reuse of product packaging, which aim to retain the functionality of products while reducing waste and broader environmental impacts. Drawing on the Multi-Level Perspective approach, we analyse three national examples of reuse in Denmark, Germany, and Mexico. While the success of reuse initiatives is often attributed to hei…

The ontological politics of freshness: Qualities of food and sustainability governance
Freshness is a key feature of contemporary food systems, however its industrial production as a quality of food carries adverse consequences. Accordingly, this paper approaches freshness as a matter of concern. Drawing on extensive fieldwork across sites of food production and consumption in the UK and Portugal, we identify four enactments of freshness. The analysis zooms in on the specific case of plastic food packaging and uses these enactments…

Understanding plastic packaging: The co-evolution of materials and society
In recent years, the environmental problems associated with plastics have become a matter of global concern. Current responses seek to replace plastics with other materials, however it is not yet clear that these alternatives will deliver improved environmental outcomes. There remains an urgent need for more nuanced understandings of plastics, their role in society, and their environmental impacts. Drawing on social science perspectives that emph…
Babur: Timurid Prince and Mughal Emperor, 1483–1530 By Stephen Frederic Dale
This book is an abridged and updated version of the author’s The Garden of the Eight Paradises: Bābur and the Culture of Empire in Central Asia, Afghanistan and India (1483–1530) (Leiden: Brill, 2004), and derives, he tells us (p. xi), from his perception that the detailed approach of the earlier work ‘left most readers gasping for air’ and that its cost had been prohibitive for readers in the Subcontinent. Whether or not the first of these verdi…
Reflections on the Islamization of Mongol Khans in Comparative Perspective
This paper compares the process of Islamization in the three westernmost Mongol states: the Chaghadaid Khanate in Central Asia; the Ilkhanate in Iran and Iraq; and the Jochid ulus (the Golden Horde) in the Pontic-Caspian steppes and the Volga region. It explores in greater depth the hallmarks of conversion, the agents of, and the motives for, Islamization and the limitations of its effects on royal policy. In particular, it highlights the tension…
Negotiating the riskscapes of convenience food
Addressing the spatial dimensions of risk, this paper examines the multiple ways that consumers negotiate the \nëriskscapesí associated with the consumption of convenience food. It explores how convenience food poses a range of risks \nand potential ways of mitigating those risks. Drawing on empirical research from Germany and the UK, the paper demonstrates \nhow food risks should be contextualized within the practices of everyday life and how co…
Tarikh-i Firoz Shahi. An English Translation By Ishtiyaq Ahmad Zilli
The Tārīkh-i Fīrūzshāhī of Żiyāʾ al-Dīn Baranī, which was completed in 758/1357, is the main Persian source for the history of Muslim India during the period from 658/1260 onwards. Baranī’s aim was to continue the Ṭabaqāt-i Nāṣirī of Minhāj-i Sirāj Jūzjānī, which ends in 658/1260 (though the Tārīkh-i Fīrūzshāhī begins in 662/1263-4, which purports to be the date of the accession of Sultan Ghiyāth al-Dīn Balaban). Were it not for Baranī, we should…
Epilogue
This epilogue discusses the impact of infidel Mongol rule on the Islamic world in the longer term, down to the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries. It begins with an analysis of the more direct legacy of infidel Mongol rule: the survival of what might be termed a ‘Mongol imperial culture’, which involved new Chinggisid concepts of legitimacy, new techniques of government, and a persistent allegiance to Mongol customary law (the Yasa). It t…
Hülegü’s Campaigns and Imperial Fragmentation (1253–62)
This chapter chronicles Hülegü's campaigns in south-west Asia between 1253 and 1262. It begins with a discussion of the Mongol invasions of Iran and other parts of south-west Asia before considering why some of Hülegü's opponents acted in the way they did and thereby brought down destruction upon themselves. It then examines the question of armaments used by Hülegü and the terms of his commission during Möngke's reign. It also analyses Hülegü's a…
Pax Mongolica and a Transcontinental Traffic
This chapter examines the conditions created by the Mongol conquests, summed up in the phrase Pax Mongolica , and the role of the Silk Roads in the transcontinental travel andcommunication to which the Mongols had given impetus. It begins with a discussion of commodities traded in Mongol Asia, including spices, silks and other luxury textiles, pearls, precious stones, bullion and furs. It then considers the Mongols' diversion of trade routes with…
The Islamic World and Inner Asian Peoples down to the Mongol Invasion
This chapter examines the relations, down to the eve of the Mongol invasions, between the Dār al-Islām and the nomads of the Eurasian steppe. When Mongol forces headed by Chinggis Khan first invaded Islamic territory in 1219, Muslims had been in contact for at least 500 years with the peoples of the great steppe belt that extends from Manchuria to Hungary and those of the forest zones of Siberia further north. The chapter first considers the Musl…
The Rule of the Infidel
This chapter examines the experience of Muslims of all social ranks under infidel Mongol rule, focusing in particularly on the contexts of taxation, law and religious freedom. It also considers the repressive measures enacted by the Mongols, notably those enshrined in Mongol law and custom, and what Muslims viewed as a starkly unwelcome departure from the practice of their pre-Mongol rulers: the establishment of parity between themselves and othe…

The Cultural Politics of Masculinity: Towards a Social Geography
Drawing on the concept of cultural politics, this paper explores the cultural construction of gender identities among men and women, emphasizing their historical and geographical specificity. It examines the extent to which patriarchal gender relations lead to the oppression of some (gay and heterosexual) men as well as being inherently exploitative of women. Notwithstanding the powerful fit between 'dominant' (or hegemonic) masculinity and 'comp…
Transnationalism and the spaces of commodity culture
This paper presents a critical assessment of the concept of transnationalism and its place within the current refiguration of cultural geography. Identifying three specific concerns with current theorizations of transnationalism (regarding the concept's scope, specificity and politics), the paper discusses the widely perceived need to 'ground' the study of transnationalism in specific empirical research. It argues that this discussion has been un…
Moral economies of food and geographies of responsibility
This paper uses the concept of ‘moral economy’ to challenge the conventional view that defines morality and the market as oppositional terms. Drawing on evidence from life history interviews with key actors in the British food industry, the paper outlines how moral and ethical questions are articulated through notions of space and time. Using case study material from the chicken and sugar industries, the paper examines the way that ethical and mo…
Black male: Advertising and the cultural politics of masculinity
During the 1980s, men's bodies began to appear with increasing frequency in television, cinema and billboard advertising. The advertisers' preferred image of masculinity has generally been young, white, able-bodied and staunchly heterosexual. This paper explores a partial exception to these generalisations: Ogilvy & Mather's highly successful relaunch of the soft drink, Lucozade. By using selected images of black male bodies and their popular ass…

Food stories: Consumption in an Age of Anxiety
This paper (originally presented as the Cultural Geographies 2009 annual lecture) reflects on the agenda set out in Maps of meaning 20 years ago which sought to chart a series of new directions in cultural geography. At the core of that project was an argument about the politics of culture and the idea of cultural politics. Today, that agenda might be re-cast as an attempt to map the intersection of culture and economy or, more precisely, of poli…
(Re)theorising population geography
Population geography has become separated from other branches of human geography by not engaging strongly with recent debates in social theory. The reasons for this partly lie in the wealth of data that population geographers have available to them concerning their major interest--demographic events....A case is made here for population geographers to consider in particular three areas of social theoretic debate--social construction theories, rea…

Crowded kitchens: The ‘democratisation’ of domesticity
Building on previous work concerning the gendered nature of domestic space, this article focuses on the kitchen as a key site in which gendered roles and responsibilities are experienced and contested. As men have begun to engage more frequently in cooking and other domestic practices (albeit selectively and often on their own terms), this article argues that kitchens have become ‘crowded’ spaces for women. Drawing on evidence from focus groups, …
Commodifying Difference: Selling Eastern Fashion
In this paper we explore the contested spaces of contemporary commodity culture through case-study research with two fashion companies that are involved, in linked but contrasting ways, with the production and marketing of cultural difference. One company, the British-based women's wear firm EAST, is striving to extend its high-street presence via a generalised 'ethnic' aesthetic, combined with culturally constructed notions of design individuali…
Re-imagining the kitchen as a site of memory
Extending the focus of previous geographical research on public spaces of remembering, this paper demonstrates the ways in which memory work also takes place in private domestic spaces. The paper draws on a combination of life history and ethnographic research undertaken in Northern England, examining kitchens as a specific lieu de mémoire, showing how they serve as places where valued items are displayed and material artefacts are curated as par…
Making Sense of Men's Lifestyle Magazines
In this paper we document the rapid growth of the British men's 'lifestyle' magazine market and explore its significance in terms of men's changing identities and gender relations. By drawing on focus-group discussions with men of different class, age, and regional and ethnic backgrounds, we contrast two ways of thinking about these magazines. The first employs a distinction between 'surface' and 'depth', and suggests that the magazines signal on…
The Mongol Empire and its Legacy
The Mongol empire was founded early in the 13th century by Chinggis Khan and within the span of two generations embraced most of Asia, becoming the largest land-based state in history. The united empire lasted only until around 1260, but the major successor states continued on in the Middle East, present day Russia, Central Asia and China for generations, leaving a lasting impact - much of which was far from negative - on these areas and their pe…

Convenience as care: Culinary antinomies in practice
This paper addresses the social and cultural significance of convenience food, often regarded as among the least healthy and most unsustainable of dietary options, subject to frequent moral disapprobation. The paper focuses, in particular, on the relationship between convenience and care, conventionally seen in oppositional terms as a culinary antinomy. Informed by a 'theories of practice' approach, the paper presents empirical evidence from ethn…
Retail Restructuring and Consumer Choice 2. Understanding Consumer Choice at the Household Level
This paper complements the preceding one by Clarke et al, which looked at the long-term impact of retail restructuring on consumer choice at the local level. Whereas the previous paper was based on quantitative evidence from survey research, this paper draws on the qualitative phases of the same three-year study, and in it we aim to understand how the changing forms of retail provision are experienced at the neighbourhood and household level. The…

The Mongols and the West: 1221-1410
The Mongols had a huge impact on medieval Europe and the Islamic world. This book provides a comprehensive survey of contacts between the Catholic West and the Mongol world-empire from the first appearance of Chinggis Khan’s armies in 1221 down to the death of Tamerlane (1405) and the battle of Tannenberg (1410). This book considers the Mongols as allies as well as conquerors; the perception of them in the West; the papal response to the threat (…
Anxiety as Social Practice
This paper advances a theory of anxiety as social practice. Distinguishing between individual anxieties and anxiety as a social condition, the paper suggests that anxiety has not been subject to the same level of theoretical scrutiny as related concepts such as risk, trust, or fear. Drawing on the existential philosophy of Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, and Heidegger, the paper shows how contemporary anxieties involve the recognition of our own mortalit…
Modernisation and the Practices of Contemporary Food Shopping
This paper examines the relationship between modernisation, consumption, and society, challenging received ideas about the distinction between 'modern' and 'premodern' geographies of food consumption. While conventional accounts posit a historical progression from premodern to modern forms of consumption, associated with the rise of the supermarket and the demise of the corner store, we argue that such distinctions may, in fact, refer less to a h…

The politics of ‘new’ men’s lifestyle magazines
The article seeks to ask some ‘political’ questions in respect of the recent publishing success of men’s lifestyle magazines. What implications does the mass popularity of such magazines have for the social construction of masculinity, and how might we account for their success among young men? In particular we focus upon the content of the magazines, and seek to understand what is genuinely ‘new’ about them. In this respect we discuss the magazi…

Patterns of interaction
The title of this paper suggests at least two possible points of departure. First, one can argue that spatial patterns are themselves an important feature in the study of social life which deserves our attention: that there is a significant geographical dimension to social interaction. Secondly, the title also implies that various social groups interact differentially with one another: that interaction is itself a proper focus for social investig…

William of Rubruck: A review article
The appearance of a new translation of the Itinerarium of William of Rubruck (1253–55) furnishes an opportunity to review the work done on this, possibly the most valuable of Western sources on the Mongols. By comparison with the mission of his fellow-Franciscan John of Plano Carpini some eight years before, that of Rubruck to the court of the Great Khan Möngke has been singularly unfortunate. An account of the earlier mission (the so-called “Tar…

The Crusades of 1239-41 and their aftermath
The period of the crusades of Theobald of Navarre and Richard of Cornwall is a critical one in the history of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem. As a result of truces made by the crusaders with neighbouring Muslim princes the kingdom came to embrace, albeit briefly, an area more extensive than it had covered at any time since the losses inflicted by Saladin following his victory at Hattīn in 1187. And yet this triumph was but the prelude to an engag…
