There’s Something in a Story: Retreating to Re-Treat
Minimizations and denials of racism by UK residents from Zimbabwe as occasioned linguistic practice
This paper argues that talk about racism produced by UK residents from Zimbabwe during life history interviews conducted in 2011 should be regarded as occasioned linguistic practice rather than a means of accessing their experiences or views about racism. Firstly, I show that interviewees downplayed racism in the UK to emphasize that Zimbabwe has a far greater problem with forms of structural inequality. This was part of a broader attempt to cons…
Revisiting ’69 Celebrations and Challenging Settler Homonationalism in the (Un)Just Society
Narratives about queer Canada, or queering Canada, continue to normalize the nation-state and its settler-colonial roots. During the summer of 2019, the release of the Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls made it impossible to ignore settler colonialism in the Canadian context, and yet celebrations of 1969’s Criminal Code changes attempted to frame the country as a safe haven for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer + (…
Intertextual, action-orientated, political and occasioned constructions of Zimbabwe as a country in crisis
The notion that textual, verbal and visual representations of places are more or less accurate depictions of reality has been challenged by cultural geographers and discursive psychologists who regard language as constitutive rather than reflective. This paper builds on this work by demonstrating that constructions of Zimbabwe produced by UK residents from Zimbabwe during life history interviews in 2011 appropriated other representations; were ac…
General Practitioner's use of online resources during medical visits: Managing the Boundary Between Inside and Outside the Clinic
In an increasingly connected world, information about health can be exchanged at any time, in any location or direction, and is no longer dominated by traditional authoritative sources. We consider the ways information and advice given in consultations by doctors transcends the boundary between the clinic and the home. We explore how information that is widely accessible outside the consultation is transformed by General Practitioners (GPs) into …
Traveling the Möbius Strip: The Influence of Two-Eyed Seeing in the Development of Indigenous Research Accomplices
Breakfast Skipping, Anxiety, Exercise, and Soda Consumption are Associated with Diet Quality in Mexican College Students
ABSTEACT Despite the reported poor dietary habits and risk of weight gain in college students, they remain understudied in Mexico. Mexican college students are in a rapidly changing economic environment; a shift from a traditional, homemade cuisine to a diet more heavily influenced by an industrialized culture seems to be occurring, potentially affecting the quality of their dietary intake. A health and nutrition survey was conducted among 450 Me…
Research as Cultural Renewal: Applying Two-Eyed Seeing in a Research Project about Cultural Interventions in First Nations Addictions Treatment
This article explores the application of two-eyed seeing in the first year of a three-year study about the effectiveness of cultural interventions in First Nations alcohol and drug treatment in Canada. Two-eyed seeing is recognized by Canada’s major health research funder as a starting point for bringing together the strengths of Indigenous and Western ways of knowing. With the aim of developing a culture-based measurement tool, our team carried …
Cultural interventions to treat addictions in Indigenous populations: Findings from a scoping study
BACKGROUND: Cultural interventions offer the hope and promise of healing from addictions for Indigenous people.a However, there are few published studies specifically examining the type and impact of these interventions. Positioned within the Honouring Our Strengths: Culture as Intervention project, a scoping study was conducted to describe what is known about the characteristics of culture-based programs and to examine the outcomes collected and…
The Role of Gender in Varying Forms of Flexible Working
In this article we present empirical data from a research study investigating the implementation of the flexible working policies that emanate from the improving working lives standard in a National Health Service Trust in the UK. We argue that gender is accorded insufficient focus in the literature, considering the barriers that create a take‐up gap in formal flexible working practices. We further argue that gendered perceptions render unworkabl…
