Disziplinhistorische Tauchgänge zur German Theory: Ein Gespräch mit Ute Wardenga über die deutsche Länderkunde und Landschaftsgeographie
Just human“ – Eine phänomenologische und philosophisch-anthropologische Perspektive auf unser leibliches Mensch-Umwelt-Verhältnis
This article aims to provide an introduction to the phenomenologically and anthropologically grounded philosophy of a „lived corporeality“ that can be connected to human geography – in order to enable a deeper understanding of our human-environment relationship and other spatial aspects of the life-world. Until present, Phenomenology and Philosophical Anthropology play a marginal role in human geography as a source of knowledge of social and spat…
The geography of the life-world – Spatialising the social theory of Alfred Schütz
The aim of this article is to highlight a frequently neglected aspect of Alfred Schütz’ social theory by suggesting a new spatial and bodily reading of his phenomenology. This change in emphasis should allow disciplines exploring the interrelations of the social and the spatial, especially human geography, to address a relative blind spot in the research by allowing a bodily perspective to be better incorporated methodologically in explanations o…
Local Self‐Governance and Weak Statehood: A Convincing Liaison
This thematic issue addresses the relationship between local self-governance and the state. Self-governance is understood as the rules that emerge in the local social and spatial context. Local self-governance of individual local groups, actors, communities, and their social and institutional arrangements are considered. From this situated collective entanglement, the interactions and relations with state authorities are analysed in the various c…
Tauchgänge zur German Theory
In this editorial, we sketch the intellectual agenda for a themed issue on German Theory. We understand German Theory as a creative and dialogical space to engage a multitude of thought styles, common in the Geisteswissenschaften and to bring them into conversations with anglophone, as much as francophone, lusophone, Italian, Spanish and other forms of Theory. This agenda promotes a ‚provincialization‘ of anglophone Geography that is connecting t…
The moral space and the logic of collective self-organisation of domestic workers in Chennai, India
Politics and (Self)-Organisation of Electricity System Transitions in a Global North–South Perspective
Dominant electricity systems are inevitably transitioning into new forms in terms of power generation mix, mode of energy system governance and vested interests, the extent of state and consumer/citizen participation in the energy system, and energy justice expectations in different geographies in the Global North and Global South. In this editorial to the thematic issue entitled Politics and (Self-)Organisation of Electricity System Transitions …
Practical recognition’ as a suitable pathway for researching just energy futures: Seeing like a ‘modern’ electricity user in Ghana
Lebenswelt, Leiblichkeit und Resonanz: Eine raumphänomenologisch-rekonstruktive Perspektive auf Geographien der Alltäglichkeit
This article aims to explore the potential of Alfred Schütz' sociological phenomenology for spatial phenomena and its integration into human geography. Although the influence and productivity of phenomenology in general could contribute significantly to shed light on spatial phenomena of the life-world, such as a progressive sense of place (Massey, 1993), transnationalities (Pries, 2001), socio-spatial atmospheres (Hasse, 2017), “home” and encoun…
From technical innovations towards social practices and socio-technical transition? Re-thinking the transition to decentralised solar PV electrification in Africa
Self-Organisation and the Co-Production of Governance: The Challenge of Local Responses to Climate Change
The arena of locally embedded and engendered responses to climate change offers a particularly fruitful and challenging space in which to scrutinise the encounters between established forms of governance and knowledge as they become entwined with locally generated forms of self-organisation. The issue of climate change offers a particularly fertile case for study because to date it has largely been dominated by state and market-based responses an…
Prolog – Raumbezogene Qualitative Sozialforschung. Konzeptionelle Überlegungen zwischen Geographie und Soziologie
Exklusion im Zentrum: Die brasilianische Favela zwischen Stigmatisierung und Widerständigkeit
Die innerstädtischen Favelas sind aus den brasilianischen Metropolen nicht mehr wegzudenken und stellen das kulturelle Rückgrat der Städte dar. Ihre Existenz verdanken sie dem Sieg über die alltägliche Demütigung und verweigerte Vollbürgerschaft. Eberhard Rothfuß legt seiner Studie eine anerkennungstheoretische Perspektive nach Honneth (1992) zugrunde und thematisiert Alltagspraktiken in Favelas am empirischen Beispiel des »Calabar«-Viertels in S…
Discourse analysis as an instrument to reveal the pivotal role of the media in local acceptance or rejection of a wildlife management project. A case study from the Bavarian Forest National Park
Raumbezogene qualitative Sozialforschung
Die AutorInnen aus der Humangeographie und Soziologie leisten einen Beitrag zur raumbezogenen qualitativen Sozialforschung, indem siein kritischer Reflexion auf den spatial turn die soziale Welt erforschen und interpretieren. Einer schlagwortartig vorgebrachten Renaissance des Raumes in den Sozial- und Kulturwissenschaften werden konkrete qualitativ-empirische und theoretisch-konzeptionelle Arbeiten gegenübergestellt, die einen eigenständigen, ra…
Intersubjectivity, intercultural hermeneutics and the recognition of the other – theoretical reflections on the understanding of aliennes in human geography research
tersubjective relation between the researcher and the researched. It always faces the danger of misinterpretation concerning the actions of the 'other'. Without the cultural and social differences that affect understanding and thus limit comprehen sion, the interpretation of research findings remains dubious. The article draws attention to this issue, which, so far, has not received sufficient recognition in human geography. It is a ?self-experim…
Hirtenhabitus, ethnotouristisches Feld und kulturelles Kapital: Zur Anwendung der "Theorie der Praxis" (Bourdieu) im Entwicklungskontext : Himba-Rindernomaden in Namibia unter dem Einfluss des Tourism…
Seit der namibischen Unabhängigkeit 1990 sehen sich die Himba, halbnomadische Viehzüchter der Trockensavannen im Nordwesten, einem zunehmenden internationalen Tourismus ausgesetzt, der diese «roten Nomaden» als «Relikte» des «alten» Afrika vermarktet. Ausgehend von Bourdieus Konzepten Habitus, Feld und Kapital, die die zentralen Axiome seiner «Theorie der Praxis» bilden, werden die Wahrnehmungs-, Denk- und Handlungsmuster der «bereisten» Himba he…
