The service transition as double fix
This paper advances a geographic research agenda for the service transition, the global shift from manufacturing and agriculture toward services. Drawing on feminist geography and economic history, we show how low-end services expand across the Global North and South because they operate as a “double fix”: they absorb surplus labor to stabilize mass employment while sustaining strained systems of social reproduction. Our framework explains the co…

Banking on ignorance
Over the past 30 years in the US, the teaching profession has been radically transformed as publicly-funded, but privately managed charter schools have created a workforce of less experienced, less unionized, less credentialed and more transient educators. This paper argues that a primary effect of these labour practices is to reduce the charter school project's ideological exposure. Charter school teachers are recruited from a national pool and …
Anticolonial realism
School systems in Black-majority urban cores have been restructured as neighborhood schools have been closed and corporate charter schools have expanded. Drawing on the case of Newark, New Jersey, I interrogate the governability of this agenda. I ask: how does a municipal government elected to reinvest in public schools end up supporting the growth of privately managed charter schools? The answer requires understanding how a Blackled government o…
After zombies
If the new neoliberalism leans ever more into failure and ‘dead’ economic ideas, it also relies on the estrangement and exhaustion of its subjects, who have been depleted in the wreckage of protracted austerity; crisis as stasis. Yet, even as ‘zombie neoliberalism’ threatens to make zombies of us, teacher unionists across the U.S. organize for a more vibrant future. Turning to the case of Newark, NJ, this article shows how teachers have embraced …
Ethical action in the age of austerity
As social housing diminishes in the U.S., community land trusts have tried to adapt to the age of austerity, growing in numbers and expanding their terrain. We argue their continued success and growth greatly depends on enacting—to borrow from Gibson-Graham et al. (2019 Gibson-Graham, J.K., Cameron, J., Healy, S. & McNeill, J. (2019) Roepke lecture in economic geography—economic geography, manufacturing, and ethical action in the anthropocene, Ec…
Victories from Insurgency
This article considers how insurgent campaigns for housing the poor in New York City and Chicago succeeded in engaging the local state, non‐profits and financial institutions in the creation of community land trusts. These campaigns had long arcs in which victories and losses built from each other, neither as permanent as they initially seemed. The campaigns moved iteratively between spaces of “invited citizenship” (courtrooms, planning committee…

La Correspondance de Ḍiyā ad-Dîn ibn al-Athīr Liste de lettres et textes de diplômes
Dans une communication au Xe Congrès des Orientalistes, Margoliouth a caractérisé comme il convient la correspondance de Ḍiyâ ad-dîn ibn al-Athîr, et donné la substance d'un certain nombre des lettres officielles rédigées par cet auteur et se référant à des faits historiques notables des années 615 à 630 de l'Hégire environ. Mais Margoliouth ne connaissait qu'un manuscrit de la correspondance de Ḍiyâ ad-dîn, celui de la Bodléienne Pococke 322, qu…
