Intended versus experienced benefits of urban blue-green infrastructure
Cultivating commoners
In this paper, we investigate how infrastructure and care shape commoner subjectivities. In our research into an urban youth farm in Aotearoa New Zealand, we heard and observed profound tales of growth and transformation among youth participants. Not only were our interviewees narrating stories of individual transformation (of themselves and others), but they also spoke of transformations in the way they engaged with the world around them, includ…
The Post-Earthquake City
This book critically assesses Christchurch, New Zealand as an evolving post-earthquake city. It examines the impact of the 2010–13 Canterbury earthquake sequence, employing a chronological structure to consider ‘damage and displacement’, ‘recovery and renewal’ and ‘the city in transition’. It offers a framework for understanding the multiple experiences and realities of post-earthquake recovery. It details how the rebuilding of the city has occur…
How do post-disaster policies influence household-level recovery? A case study of the 2010-11 Canterbury earthquake sequence, New Zealand
Recognition and attunement in migration research
This commentary reflects upon Miriam Tedeschi’s (2021) use of Gilbert Simondon’s work to examine the lived experience of irregular migrants in Finland. It considers what Simondon’s ideas illuminate as well as what they appear to leave relatively unexamined. If we are to understand the lived experience of irregular migrants, it is argued that we need theoretical resources that more fully foreground social and political processes of welcome/unwelco…
Contemporary landscapes of welfare
Transitional organisations, affective atmospheres and new forms of being‐in‐common
With reference to the post‐disaster urban landscape of Christchurch, New Zealand, this paper examines the emergence of particular forms of nongovernmental organisation after the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes, and the kinds of transitional activities in which they have been engaged. Two sets of conceptual apparatus are deployed. First, we suggest that the spaces and activities of transitional organisations have provoked particular “affective atmospher…
Fostering student mental well‐being through supportive learning communities
Key Messages The proportion of contemporary university students experiencing mental distress appears to be increasing. The development of supportive learning communities is a preventative and collectively oriented response to student mental distress, and complements the individually focused work of mental health professionals. Three relatively common pedagogical practices within Geography—group work, residential fieldwork, and reflective assignme…

New cultural economies of marginality
Expressions of Charity and Action towards Justice
Christian churches have long been involved in responding to social need in New Zealand cities. Since the formation of city missions in the late 19th century, their engagements have variously encompassed emergency relief, social housing, orphanages and residential aged care. In recent years, the churches and their affiliated social service operations have also sought to intervene in the political and social processes that contribute to disadvantag…
The Affective Possibilities of London
This paper contributes to research on the lived dimensions of transnational mobility through an engagement with recent work on affect. Drawing on interviews with New Zealand skilled migrants, we argue that the attractions and experience of relocation to London are significantly connected to the affective possibilities it offers. As a diverse and enlivening set of ecologies of place, London appears to facilitate a certain feeling of being in the h…
Translocal Subjectivities
When I think of my body and ask what it does to earn that name, two things stand out. It moves. It feels. In fact, it does both at the same time. It moves as it feels, and it feels itself moving. C

Escalator London? A Case Study of New Zealand Tertiary Educated Migrants in a Global City
In this paper we consider whether London functions as an ‘escalator region’ for international migrants in the same way that has been suggested for domestic migrants. Our case study focuses on New Zealand tertiary educated migrants who move to London for a period of work and travel. We propose a four-fold typology of these movers, seeking to tease out the different motivations and aspirations behind their global mobility, and the different ways in…
Landscape, care and the relational self
Transnational urbanism
In this special issue on transnational urbanism, we are interested in accounts of transnational mobility that are attentive to everyday practices and geographical emplacement. Eschewing narratives of trouble-free movement by disembedded actors, consideration is thus given to the mundane and situated efforts by which people make their lives across international borders. We also wish to amplify the social scientific register of transnational migran…
Friendship, networks and transnationality in a world city
As a contribution to the growing literature on contemporary forms of global mobility, we consider young New Zealanders who move to the UK for a period of work and travel, typically basing themselves in London. Beyond consideration of career opportunities, we find formulations of the self as creative project to be remarkably central to the mobility of these New Zealanders. Their time in London is often understood as a period of exploration, travel…
Doing Organisational Space
In this paper I consider the doing of organisational space. Within a sociopolitical context that presents opportunities and constraints, my interest is in how a particular set of organisational spaces-those of a voluntary welfare agency-are brought into being within the city and in how we might best apprehend their experiential texture. Drawing on research undertaken in a community drop-in centre in Christchurch, New Zealand, I explore the utilit…
The Possibilities of Performance
Geographies of care
Questions of care appear to be catching the imagination of researchers across several areas of human geography at present (see Parr 2003).We can note, for instance, the growing body of work that explores the significance of care in particular settings. Milligan (2000) has written of the home-space in this regard, while Twigg's (2000) work on bathing and intimate care is similarly attentive to domestic spatiality. The complex material and psycho-s…
Spaces of care in the city
This paper explores the ways in which drop-in centres may at times function as spaces of care in the city. Drawing on participant observation research within a particular centre in Bristol, a city in south-west England, it focuses upon social relations within the drop-in space and the various subjectivities that were observed to emerge in this relational environment. Through a consideration of individuals who appeared to be positively assisted by…
Reworking the Geography of the Long Boom; The Small Town Experience of Restructuring in Reefton, New Zealand
During the postwar long boom, the economic, political, and cultural configurations adopted to regulate the crisis tendencies of capitalism in New Zealand were broadly those of social democracy. Key features of social democratic policy in this period were the assistance of primary production through subsidies, the protection of domestic industry, a well-developed welfare state, and the promotion of economic development in marginal places and regio…
