This is typically a scenario that has been found to lead to increased hydropolitical tensions and conflict. However, given the fractured hegemonic power of China as an upstream neighbor and the importance of the China relationship for Viet Nam, neither conflict nor cooperation around shared water are realistic options. Instead, Vietnamese actors are operating pragmatically in the spaces between. Experimentation in ‘what is possible’ given the asymmetric relationship is diverse, decentralized, and widespread. Distributed sensemaking by Vietnamese actors, while not able to overcome the power imbalance, does decrease gaps of uncertainty and allow for Viet Nam to enhance its ideational power of how and why change is happening in the Red River. This enhanced understanding through pragmatic sensemaking improves the knowledge and bargaining power of Viet Nam with a fractured upstream superpower.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12497,"journal":{"name":"Geoforum","volume":"161 ","pages":"Article 104269"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143705030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The 2013 Bolivian <em>Socialización</em> Law, a post-neoliberal participatory framework, mandates that infrastructure project design and implementation involve participation of all ‘organized civil society actors’, including Indigenous groups, labor unions, and other social movements. Here we examine labor union participation in waterway modernization through a case study of the new Ichilo-Mamoré waterway ’Stretch 1’ (<em>Tramo I</em>) in the Bolivian Amazon, which borders the municipality of Santa Ana del Yacuma, where the Regional Labor Central (COR-SAY) has expanded its support base and political relevance since 2017 with MAS party support. The <em>socialización</em> process yielded partial victories for labor unions, with the inclusion of a labor-formulated Municipal Port Terminal in the national waterway program and recognition of COR-SAY as the local representative in infrastructure projects. The port terminal integrated expert and local knowledge, though COR-SAY’s new role diminished the influence of Indigenous organizations. Despite these labor gains, the article reveals constraints in achieving deeper democratic change through infrastructure program participation. This stems from the State’s focus on managed consensus-building, which contrasts with labor unions view of <em>socialización</em> as a means to advance sectoral demands through infrastructure development. Thus, in Bolivia’s post-neoliberal context, consensus over infrastructure projects—potentially harmful to Indigenous livelihoods—generates new struggles for socio-economic progress.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12497,"journal":{"name":"Geoforum","volume":"161 ","pages":"Article 104270"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143687969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because <em>arraigo</em> systematically encourages endurance over resistance, precarity becomes a long-term structural reality, with temporality actively shaping workers’ vulnerabilities.

Based on an analysis of historical and contemporary documents, we show how the first two major river projects between the mid-19th and mid-20th century led to a gradually increasing separation of land and water. The current river-training project gives more space to the river, but it deepens the land–water demarcation through reinforced flood protection. Using a ‘postcolonial mirror’, a heuristic tool to uncover ontologies, discontinuities and continuities across space and time, we then identify the historical continuities of different forms of domination of the river, ranging from scientific knowledge and conceptualizations to commodification and the creation of false memories. We conclude that the colonial mirror is a useful heuristic tool to uncover usually hidden processes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12497,"journal":{"name":"Geoforum","volume":"161 ","pages":"Article 104246"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143643491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose addressing this challenge by rethinking the role of urban zoos in shaping human-animal relations. Drawing on a case-study of a colony of wild geese nesting in Korkeasaari zoo, Finland, we tap into the productive ambivalence of Foucauldian heterotopias. This lens reveals how a zoo simultaneously functions as a socially ordered and tightly controlled institution of captivity, shaping and being shaped by human discourses on wildlife, but also as a real place, dynamically made and re-made through more-than-human agencies, relations, and materialities. This tension results in discourses and practices that stage a mode of open-ended interspecies exchange, politicising the shared use of space between human and non-human animals. In the context of intensive management policies and restrictive measures applied to non-human animals in urban contexts, Korkeasaari zoo stands out as an interspecies experiment where wildlife has been allowed to settle −at least in part- on their own terms. The paper concludes by exploring the potential of such more-than-human heterotopias to offer models for co-existing with non-human animals on mutually negotiated political terms. We advocate for a research focus on similar ‘other’ places where non-human creatures catalyse a reimagining of anthropocentric spaces, offering pathways to rethink urban living and human-animal relations that constitute it.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12497,"journal":{"name":"Geoforum","volume":"161 ","pages":"Article 104261"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143637420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork (2015–2021) with West Africans facing deportation in Germany and activists, it investigates how the protests effectively challenged the role of West African authorities and embassies in German deportations. As the European Union sought to increase ‘returns’, the protesters contested this framing of deportation, which presupposes symmetrical nation-states, reciprocity, and harmonious belonging. They exposed colonial continuities in European deportation policies and asymmetries in sovereignty, mobility, and access to resources. Building on longstanding West African diaspora critique, the protesters denounced Euro-African borders as the ‘Borders of Berlin’, traced to the 1884–1885 Berlin Conference and reinforced after the fall of the Berlin Wall. They urged African governments to reject deportations and subordination to Europe, reframing migration as decolonisation and redress. Yet, by voicing demands as citizens to nation-state representatives, they also affirmed the identities and nation-states created by the Borders of Berlin. The article contributes to scholarship on colonialism’s influence on European borders and externalisation by centring the analyses and agency of marginalised actors in shaping deportation, Euro-African relations, and international law. It challenges the view of externalisation as Europe’s territorial expansion, highlighting colonial continuities and violence within Europe. Moreover, it underscores the persistence of the national as a frame for resistance and the fragility of the Borders of Berlin as a radical, decolonising imaginary, in contrast to the nation-state order enforced through deportations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12497,"journal":{"name":"Geoforum","volume":"161 ","pages":"Article 104205"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143628652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study analyses the structure of the network of a coworking space and identifies the variables that influence knowledge exchanges, measuring the effect of different proximity dimensions. Using a case study of a well-established coworking in Petrer, a small ‘left-behind’ city in Eastern Spain, the study employs a social network analysis approach to analyse the knowledge-sharing network. In contrast to previous studies, it includes a full-network survey of the community, including not only coworkers but also coworking managers, ex-coworkers, and other collaborators of the space. Additional interviews, a focus group, and participatory observation contribute to providing deeper insights. By mapping and analysing the knowledge exchange network, the study sheds light on the behaviour of the different groups in knowledge sharing, highlighting the relevance of the coworking managers in building these networks. Furthermore, the study employs a multivariate exponential random graph model to demonstrate that while more frequent co-location strengthens social ties, temporary proximity is sufficient to stimulate knowledge exchanges. Moreover, non-geographical dimensions of proximity, such as organisational, social, and, to a lesser extent, institutional, are found to have an effect on knowledge sharing, while cognitive proximity does not appear to be significant.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12497,"journal":{"name":"Geoforum","volume":"161 ","pages":"Article 104264"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143592328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
