Abstract

Inspired by Jamie Peck’s recent article on conjunctural methodologies, we discuss how geographers might interpret these troubling times. We hope to keep the conversation going by suggesting that a strength of conjunctural analysis lies in trying to get to grips with multiple crises without always knowing precisely where to look. Another strength of this approach is to take seriously all the cultural and political work involved in the articulation of different struggles, tensions, and contradictions combining in complex, and sometimes surprising, ways. So, in addition to looking inward to economic geography, we suggest that thinking conjuncturally might also involve looking elsewhere to ask what's at stake in the present moment – in all its complexity – in order to bring other political possibilities into view.

同时思考，放眼别处

受杰米·派克(Jamie Peck)最近一篇关于联合方法论的文章的启发，我们讨论了地理学家如何解释这些令人不安的时代。我们希望通过暗示，行情分析的力量在于，在不总是确切知道该往哪里看的情况下，努力掌握多重危机，从而使对话继续下去。这种方法的另一个优点是，它认真对待所有的文化和政治工作，这些工作涉及到各种斗争、紧张局势和矛盾以复杂的、有时令人惊讶的方式结合在一起。因此，除了向内看经济地理之外，我们建议，从经济地理的角度思考，也可能涉及到从其他角度去思考，在当前时刻——在其所有的复杂性中——什么是利害攸关的，以便将其他政治可能性纳入视野。

期刊介绍： Dialogues in Human Geography aims to foster open and critical debate on the philosophical, methodological, and pedagogical underpinnings of geographic thought and practice. The journal publishes articles, accompanied by responses, that critique current thinking and practice while charting future directions for geographic thought, empirical research, and pedagogy. Dialogues is theoretically oriented, forward-looking, and seeks to publish original and innovative work that expands the boundaries of geographical theory, practice, and pedagogy through a unique format of open peer commentary. This format encourages engaged dialogue. The journal's scope encompasses the broader agenda of human geography within the context of social sciences, humanities, and environmental sciences, as well as specific ideas, debates, and practices within disciplinary subfields. It is relevant and useful to those interested in all aspects of the discipline.
