This article focuses on the experiences of territory of one of the largest women’s grassroots movements in Medellín, Colombia, during the revision of the city’s masterplan, known as the Plan de Ordenamiento Territorial (or POT), in 2014. Through the POT revision, women’s grassroots movements proposed the inclusion of a gender perspective in the city masterplan. Through the examination of interviews with activists and drawing on the notion of territory as an ‘idea and practice’ in which social movements appropriate space for political projects and the notion of feminismos territoriales, which centres on the care of territory and the body, I show that women’s territorial demands are rooted in their gendered knowledge and experiences of territory. This knowledge is based on feeling/thinking (sentipensar) strategies that stem from women’s care activities and the protection of their bodies. Territory acquires political meaning as women’s grassroots movements challenge state territorial policies, such as the city masterplan, and demonstrates their role as ‘constructoras territoriales’, or producers of urban territories.","PeriodicalId":398229,"journal":{"name":"Third World Thematics: A TWQ Journal","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127206677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indigenous and feminists’ movements in Abya Yala (Latin America) are calling for plural understandings of territories, bodies, and Earth, as inseparable and co-constituted – territorio-cuerpo-tierra. We build on the relationality of territory to analyse the 1985 and 2017 earthquakes in Mexico, which dramatically transformed the lives of thousands of people, particularly precarious workers. Drawing on in-depth interviews with activists that participated in disaster response brigades, we focus on the experiences of the Brigada Feminista (Feminist Brigade), who metaphorically and physically held and continue to hold the bodies of marginalised women, disrupting the configuration of territories of violence to demand access to spaces and justice. They organised to protect women not only from the impacts of the earthquake, but from capitalist and patriarchal violence. Here, “sororidad” emerges as a form of collective action, the territorial practice of coming together to resist gendered violence and oppression, fighting for the survival and expansion of safer women territories. We contend that a relational politics of place in academia that challenges the separation of territories, bodies, and disasters needs to be foregrounded on listening, learning, and opening spaces to counter-hegemonic territorial propositions.","PeriodicalId":398229,"journal":{"name":"Third World Thematics: A TWQ Journal","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115082727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, Anglophone studies on intimate partner violence against migrant women have largely reproduced problematic gendered culturalist representations, which may be symptomatic of a methodological scarcity of research with, for and/or by – rather than about migrants. Expanding on methodological attempts to counter these trends, this paper proposes a decolonial feminist geographical praxis for migration studies, which builds on existing efforts to decolonise feminist geographical methodologies. Travelling Cuerpo-Territorios is a travelling methodology to conduct decolonial feminist geographical research with migrant women. As a Brazilian woman researching Latin American women’s experiences of intimate and state violence(s) and resistance in England, I implemented this methodology in a Global North context of COVID-19 restrictions. Mobilising and adapting Cuerpo-Territorio (“Body-Territory”), as an embodied Latin American ontology and as a method, I methodologically advance critical migration studies and feminist geopolitics’ perspectives towards a decolonial direction. This approach decolonises migration research by proposing a multi-scalar methodological framework that centres on a decolonial feminist understanding of the body, as the first territory-scale of analysis and from which knowledge is critically produced.","PeriodicalId":398229,"journal":{"name":"Third World Thematics: A TWQ Journal","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126821490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, it looks at the centrality of Latin America – as an idea, experience and epistemology – from which debates on the intersection of territory and decolonisation have been framed. The seeming hegemony of certain lines of Latin American critical geography could present a challenge to decolonial imperatives. In response, this introduction is framed around two discussions. First, this article considers a resurgence of interest in Area Studies and relational conjunctural analysis in Anglophone geographies, and suggests the latter may provide a fruitful intersection with decolonising tendencies. Second, it discusses recent feminist debates on body-territory as a travelling idea and practice that has the potential to articulate across different geographical realities. In making these humble contributions to existing debates, the introduction also reflects on the significance of positionality and highlights tensions between the authors as a means of exemplifying strategies of epistemic dialogue that may (or may not) provide ground for decolonial discussions on territory.","PeriodicalId":398229,"journal":{"name":"Third World Thematics: A TWQ Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128600162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since early contact, instruments of land appropriation like surveying, mapping, town building, zoning, and place-naming have helped legitimise settler presence and imposed Western spatial relations over Indigenous territories. Indigenous planning – understood as planning by, for, and with Indigenous peoples grounded in their worldviews, values, and priorities – pre-dates and stands in stark contrast to dominant planning discourses. This paper offers methodological reflections on a participatory action research project that seeks to rebuild a Mapuche spatial planning knowledge base that still exists despite state-led attempts to disarticulate Mapuche socio-spatial relations. Within the logic of Indigenous resurgence, we consider the power of land-based walking and storytelling methodologies as tools to rebuild Mapuche spatial planning. By deepening embodied community knowledge of the land, renaming places, and (re)producing community-owned knowledge that refuses to be shared outwardly such methodologies not only contest the legitimacy of Western planning systems, but reassert the principles that have long guided Mapuche spatial planning and support the reconstruction of Mapuche territory. We also explore the limits of such approaches and whether they can reorient the ethics of Western planning towards Indigenous priorities.","PeriodicalId":398229,"journal":{"name":"Third World Thematics: A TWQ Journal","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134497129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The oral histories include narratives from internal migrants, South African women migrating from rural areas, as well as women arriving from other African countries. These narratives illustrate tangled and complex strategies and coping mechanisms deployed by the women to build economic livelihoods. This kaleidoscope of strategies works in both opposition and alignment with the contemporary structures of neoliberal capitalism and patriarchy. The article argues that intersubjective narratives are useful to make sense of how women navigate life and livelihoods when faced with the materiality of patriarchal social relations and a capitalist economy. Changes in women’s economic earnings and responsibilities have not coincided with large-scale dismantling of patriarchal ideologies, or neoliberal structures. Given this, there are limitations for transformative gender relations through engaging in forms of work. These fine-grained explorations of lived experiences require equally textured social and economic policies, which recognise how the workings of neoliberal capitalism rely on, and support, forms of oppression linked to gender and migration.","PeriodicalId":398229,"journal":{"name":"Third World Thematics: A TWQ Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122090816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article explores how competing political factions have adopted a form of arbitration called sulh, or communal conciliation, to mitigate conflicts. Based on fieldwork and interviews with leading actors from Balata and the city of Nablus, it offers an up-close account of how the local administration of customary justice has evolved from past days of anti-colonial struggle to the present era of contested state-building. Drawing on Faleh Jabar’s concepts social and etatist tribalism, the article asks: Do the conciliation committees of Nablus and its refugee camps constitute a semi-autonomous legal order fostering communal resilience or an instrument of power reflecting the dominance of the political elite? The study shows that the committees’ embeddedness in the proto-state structures of the Palestinian leadership has challenged their autonomy. Structurally, ‘tribal law’ has increasingly become synonymous with the rule of the Fatah faction – a matter that long has driven wedges between leading conciliation men. This article contributes to our understanding of how political movements take part in shaping what is considered customary and traditional and use it to further their rule.","PeriodicalId":398229,"journal":{"name":"Third World Thematics: A TWQ Journal","volume":" 36","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120830889","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A central component of this ideology is the focus on gender equality (jineologi). Ideology has served as a potent mobilising force in particular by empowering women, a group that is often at the margins of power in traditional Kurdish society, and is a cornerstone of the Rojava revolution. However, it also presents challenges for the PYD in their relations with local tribes on whom the PYD depends for sustaining the Kurdish position in the northeast. Turkey’s interventions have given the tribes a new position in the conflict and for the PYD, this means that negotiating power with the tribes will be increasingly critical to their own position. In an effort to retain a dominant position how will the PYD, no longer a vanguard movement, relate to key elements of their gender ideology?

One also needs to look at Hamas’ relation to Gaza’s ubiquitous kinship groups. Gazans’ trust in kinship institutions is deeply rooted, as is confirmed by a survey presented in the article. After seizing power in Gaza in 2007 Hamas approached the kinship sector with the aim of curbing the strong clans and restructure important kinship institutions. Yet, over the years, engaging with the kinship institutions, especially the informal law sector, also had an impact on Hamas itself. The use of informal law and conflict resolution mechanisms thus became a distinctive feature of the “soft” dimension of the Hamas form of rule. The policy has been appealing to the kinship groups and narrowed the cultural distance between the two. The focus on kinship and local culture is relevant for the wider field of rebel governance research, I contend. In order to understand insurgent governments’ success or lack of success in winning civilians’ hearts and minds, how the rulers adjust to local culture must be analysed.","PeriodicalId":398229,"journal":{"name":"Third World Thematics: A TWQ Journal","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133913587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
