Site selection principles and geocomputational modeling for the imperial tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in China
The site selection and construction of the Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in China strictly adhered to Feng Shui principles, reflecting the highest funeral institution of Chinese feudal society and its cosmological and philosophical views on life and death over thousands of years. In this study, the Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties of China are examined using DEM elevation data, water network data, and remote sensing i…

Navigating urban poverty
The global challenges of urban poverty and homelessness are widely considered among the most critical, with beggars usually symbolizing visible and marginalized groups of the urban poor. Using the Sustainable Livelihoods framework, this paper considers how livelihood capitals influence survival strategies among urban beggars in Surakarta, Indonesia. Key findings reveal that financial and social capital plays a significant role in developing an en…
A post-tsunami sea change? Towards post-secular disaster response in Indonesia
White Noise and Unnecessary Evil
Images of the urban religious landscape
In spite of growing attention among geographers to the diversity of religious spaces, young adults’ perceptions of such sites and their relevance in contemporary society remain relatively under-researched. In response, this article focuses on Generation Z undergraduates’ conceptualizations of religious space and engagement with broader questions pertaining to the sacralization of urban sites. The students identified a wide range of urban sites be…
Collaboration and disaster
Lampung, located in the southern part of Sumatra, is an example of a disaster-prone province in Indonesia. South Lampung regency in particular is at potential risk of three natural disasters: tsunamis, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Through drawing upon interviews with authority figures from two districts of the regency (Kalianda and Rajabasa) and applying the collaborative governance theory of Ansell and Gash, this article contributes in tw…

Jewish schools rather than Jewish education? School choice and community dynamics in multicultural society
The expansion of faith schooling in countries such as England raises important questions about their appeal in multicultural societies. Through a case study approach, this article aims to understand the influences behind parents' decisions to send their children to Jewish schools. It illustrates a tension experienced by Jewish parents between a desire for their children to be educated as a community of 'similar' peers, and the segregation that mi…
Jewish Schools and the Challenges of Denominationalism in England
Spectacles against the Swastika
Despite increased attention among geographers to the diversity of spaces that can constitute informal sites of education, theater in general and spectacles more specifically have garnered relatively little geographical interest. In response, this paper draws upon Paulo Freire’s philosophy to examine how the two major productions of the Zionist activist Meyer Weisgal—The Romance of a People and The Eternal Road—aimed to challenge historic represen…

Krav maga and chicken soup
Faith schools may play an important role in reproducing ethnoreligious identities, yet research into Jewish schools has tended to overlook students’ personalised conceptualisations of faith. Instead, it has regularly utilised restrictive ‘indicators’ of ethnoreligious practice in order to gauge these institutions’ effectiveness in ‘strengthening’ Jewish identity and thus mitigating assimilation. In response, this article explores the ways in whic…
Fixity and flux
Jewish identities are becoming increasingly pluralised due to internal dynamics within Judaism and wider social processes such as secularisation, globalisation and individualisation. However, empirical research on contemporary Jewish identities often continues to adopt restrictive methodological and conceptual approaches that reify Jewish identity and portray it as a ‘product’ for educational providers and others to pass to younger generations. M…
Competition or cooperation? Jewish day schools, synagogues and the (re)construction of young people’s Jewish identities in England
Diasporic synagogues have historically provided a number of educational and social functions. However, the growing popularity of state-funded Jewish schools in England necessitates analysis of these institutions’ changing roles and their implications for performances of Jewishness. Drawing upon interviews with rabbis, and interviews and focus groups with parents and students at a Jewish school, this article demonstrates three challenges for synag…
