Material and symbolic production of fashion in a global creative city. Industry’s perception of the 21st century London
In response to globalization of traditional manufacturing and the growing significance of a symbolic economy, fashion cities are now formed by different mixings of material, design/creative and symbolic forms of production. The intersection between these elements is particularly evident in the global fashion cities, which have experienced a profound process of deindustrialization and a shift between manufacturing and symbolic economies. This pape…
Recherche de vérité et construction du récit d’après le premier livre de Thucydide
Considéré avec Hérodote comme l’un des « pères de l’histoire », Thucydide est l’un des auteurs grecs les plus étudiés, à tel point que les innombrables travaux qui portent sur la Guerre du Péloponnèse , œuvre difficile, fascinante et problématique, constituent aujourd’hui un massif très difficile à maîtriser. À partir du livre I de la Guerre du Péloponnèse ainsi que de plusieurs essais d’interprétation, anciens ou récents, l’article entend mettre…
From sacred place to outer space: Collective creativity and the iconographies of mid-twentieth century English modernity in Guildford Cathedral's kneelers
Between 1936 and 1969, around 1600 kneelers were produced for the new Anglican cathedral at Guildford in Surrey, southern England. This was a major collective devotional artwork, involving hundreds of embroiderers, mostly local women. The project was a distinctive form of community and collective artwork, that complicates established understandings of embroidery, craftwork, femininity and politics. It worked within guidelines for design and mater…
Translated Transcripts From Covert Recordings Used for Evidence in Court: Issues of Reliability
Nation states increasingly apply electronic surveillance techniques to combat serious and organised crime after broadening and deepening their national security agendas. Covertly obtained recordings from telephone interception and listening devices of conversations related to suspected criminal activity in Languages Other Than English (LOTE) frequently contain jargon and/or code words. Community translators and interpreters are routinely called u…

The Hunting of the Fashion City: Rethinking the Relationship Between Fashion and the Urban in the Twenty-First Century
This paper argues that a focus on the idea of the “fashion city” can prove counter-productive in thinking about the relationship between fashion and urbanism. We suggest four provocations about the “hunt for the fashion city.” First, we argue that the hunt for a singular fashion city is misguided, and seek to move away from a model set by a limited number of established fashion capitals. In particular we propose a “field” of fashion city types, a…
Faith, planning and changing multiculturalism: Constructing religious buildings in London's suburbia
This paper draws on recent research on the construction of new religious buildings by diverse faith communities in the London Borough of Ealing in West London to compare the navigation of local planning processes in the realization of new permanent structures for worship. While existing research emphasizes barriers for minority faith communities, this paper suggests that faith communities are successful local actors able to navigate local plannin…
The hidden geographies of religious creativity: Place-making and material culture in West London faith communities
Religious activity, particularly as associated with what might be called everyday organized religion, has been unconsidered in recent discussions of the geographies and policies relating to creativity, and has been almost absent in the discipline of Geography's recent 'creative turn'. We argue both that religion has been given little or no attention in academic discussions of vernacular creativity, while arts policy as it developed in the United …
The Looks of Austerity: Fashions for Hard Times
The hemline index, still often referenced by fashion journalists and bloggers, supposedly identifies a relationship between fashion style and economic indicators. The index makes little sense, but its enduring popularity indicates a broader notion that that fashion does respond to economic circumstances. This article examines the difficult relationship between economics and fashion theory. It highlights the poverty of conceptions of fashion in di…

Landscapes of diasporic religious belonging in the edge-city: The Jain temple at Potters Bar, outer London
This paper extends current debates about diaspora cities to the suburbs, arguing that new forms of diasporic religious architecture in suburban and edge-city locations are indicative of complex geographies of migration, settlement, mobility, transnational networks and diasporic material cultures. Drawing on a detailed analysis of the building of a new Jain Temple built in Potters' Bar, on the edge of London, by the Oshwal Community of Jains, we a…

Advancing the Africentric Paradigm Shift Discourse: Building toward Evidence-Based Africentric Interventions in Social Work Practice with African Americans
For over a decade, a number of social work scholars have advocated for an Africentric paradigm shift in social work practice with African Americans; yet the paradigm shift has been slow in coming with respect to infusing Africentric theory and interventions into social work practice, education, and research. Interventions that infuse Africentric values (such as interdependence, collectivism, transformation, and spirituality) have been shown to cr…

Racial and religious discrimination: The inexorable relationship between schools and the individual
Institutional racism remains a difficult and nebulous practice to analyse. This is due, in part, to the sophisticated and complex discriminatory mechanisms that operate through and between institutions. Furthermore, this is affected by the inequity that is experienced by both those who are employed and those who are serviced by the organisation. It is argued in this paper that a false dichotomy has existed in earlier constructions of institutions…
