He taught and researched in human geography at the University of Tasmania for over a decade from the late 1950s before serving a term in the House of Representatives as the Liberal member for the Hobart seat of Denison. Thereafter he pursued a somewhat peripatetic career mainly in the private sector and pursued his interests in urban affairs and writing.</p><p>Solomon was born in Condobolin in central western New South Wales (NSW) and went to primary school in Rous near Lismore and Aberdeen in the lower Hunter Valley as the family moved following his father’s appointments as a headmaster. He was a boarder at Barker College on Sydney’s upper North Shore from 1943 and completed his Leaving Certificate in 1948.</p><p>With an interest in geography kindled at school, he undertook a BA at the University of Sydney and graduated with first class honours in 1954. Led by Professor James Macdonald Holmes, regional studies were a major concern of the human geography lecturers John Andrews, Ken Robinson and Jack Devery. Solomon did his thesis on Broken Hill “as a geographical entity rather than a geological wonder” under the “sustained assistance and advice” of Macdonald Holmes and Robinson (Solomon, <span>1953</span>), the latter influentially working on his own historical geography of Sydney (Robinson, <span>1952</span>). Solomon had older Jewish family connections in Broken Hill but was brought up the Methodist Church (Clarke, pers comm, <span>2024</span>).</p><p>Solomon was a keen student and president of the student geographical society in 1953. His record-breaking athleticism also singled him out, as it had at school from the age of 15. As a middle-distance runner, he competed at the representative level and was captain of the University’s Athletics Club, honorary treasurer of the Sports Union and a sports editor of the student newspaper <i>Honi Soit</i>. In 1955 after completing a Diploma of Education, teaching at Sutherland Intermediate High School and joining the Council of the Geographical Society of NSW, he left for Oxford University midway through the year as the NSW Rhodes Scholar. He was reputedly only the second geographer globally after Chauncy Harris two decades earlier to have that honour (Solomon, <span>2014</span>). He had been encouraged to apply by Professor of Physiology Frank Cotton whose innovative methods influenced his athletic training (Solomon, <span>2007</span>). His ambition was to become a “geographer cum educationist” (Sydney Morning Herald, <span>1954</span>). At Wadham College, he continued his running career with his specialty the 440 yards (quarter mile). Academically, his tutor was Martyn Webb, later Professor of Geography at the University of Western Australia (Ryan, <span>2021</span>).</p><p>Passing on the opportunity to work with Erwin Gutkind on his International History of City Development at the University of Pennsylv","PeriodicalId":47233,"journal":{"name":"Geographical Research","volume":"63 2","pages":"293-298"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1745-5871.70006","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143944548","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}

However, little research has been done on how policy debates are framed by people with competing perspectives on corruption. This article draws on interviews with key stakeholders to highlight how narratives of corruption have framed debates about policy reform in the Philippine rice industry. Respondents whose views reflect an economic perspective that promotes market mechanisms to address corruption justified a law designed to deregulate the rice market. Their actions were a panacea to the growing power of cartels illegally and often corruptly importing rice into the country. Respondents whose views reflect a critical perspective argued that this law would only bolster cartel power and that other policy solutions such as land reform and self-sufficiency would reduce corruption and other injustices. Our analysis reveals how those debates informed deregulation of the Philippine rice sector and resulted in a Rice Tariffication Law in 2019. In the process, we reveal how competing perspectives on corruption and associated narratives are ideologically deployed to shape policy reforms that expand economic globalisation and benefit some groups, such as consumers, at the expense of others, particularly small-scale farmers.</p>","PeriodicalId":47233,"journal":{"name":"Geographical Research","volume":"63 3","pages":"377-389"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1745-5871.70004","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144888324","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}

Our model encompasses the structures, processes, functions, and contents of social organisation across micro, meso, and macro scales. We developed four data sets linked to COVID-19 and analysed these as variables in our model: (1) letters to the editor in public newspapers; (2) net weekly payroll jobs growth; (3) income/wealth inequality; (4) COVID-19 mortality and case/infection rates. These variables are used as proxies for democratic systems resilience, economic systems resilience, socioeconomic systems fairness, and public health systems efficacy, respectively. We found that as the pandemic progressed, public opinion shifted from favouring structural-societal transformation to favouring incremental adaptation. Spatial scale and geographical location impacted the resilience of weekly payroll jobs, with ‘urban’/densely populated areas having less job growth than ‘regional’/less dense locations, and ‘national’ scale net jobs growth being greater than ‘job growth in New South Wales, Tasmania, and Victoria, in decreasing order. Transitions in pandemic policies of border restrictions and vaccination constrained net job losses, or enabled net gains over time, with the federal <i>JobKeeper</i> wage support preventing ‘breakout’ unemployment. Mobility restrictions and vaccination minimised mortality rates with self-administered (RAT) testing possibly decreasing infection rates. While our findings affirm that the complexity and ‘messiness’ of social policy means that management outcomes are not easily predictable nor will necessarily match expectations, our model provides a framework for assessing system dynamics and outcome fairness.</p>","PeriodicalId":47233,"journal":{"name":"Geographical Research","volume":"63 3","pages":"363-376"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1745-5871.70003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144885281","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}

In this paper, we suggest three pillars of feminist livelihood studies that advance debates in this field. First, postcolonialism and decoloniality are separate but related frameworks essential for situating feminist approaches to livelihoods. Second, social-relational and intersectional analyses provide critical understandings of the forces of oppression and difference that co-produce livelihoods. Finally, feminist research on the environment examines social-ecological dimensions of livelihoods that complement studies in feminist political ecology. Feminist methodologies are highlighted throughout our discussion and include the application of decolonising methods, reflexivity, and socio-spatial dynamics within livelihood research. Attention to these pillars through a critical feminist lens provides a transformative agenda for livelihood studies. In sum, the research and practice of feminist livelihoods presented here support new directions for development studies to disrupt colonial, masculinist, and racialised approaches and to decolonise the ways we interact with communities to affect change.</p>","PeriodicalId":47233,"journal":{"name":"Geographical Research","volume":"63 3","pages":"353-362"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1745-5871.12688","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144888518","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}

I was fortunate to spend some time at Cape Reinga in Northland. The lighthouse there marks a meeting point of the Tasman Sea and the Pacific Ocean, with whirlpools where the currents collide. These turbulent waters not only represent a special place in Māori culture but also serve as a contemporary metaphor for geography and geographers. Turbulence in the academy and the positioning of geography within such debates are, of course, now well-rehearsed conversations in &lt;i&gt;Geographical Research&lt;/i&gt; and elsewhere. Nonetheless, the personal and professional impacts of the waves currently buffeting the higher education sector cannot be underestimated.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, the continuing relevance and vibrancy of the discipline of geography as a ‘meeting of the seas’ gives ongoing cause for optimism. In this context, it is a great privilege to contribute to the geographical community in Australia and beyond as the new Editor-in-Chief for &lt;i&gt;Geographical Research&lt;/i&gt;. The coming months will provide an opportunity to reflect on the vision and purpose of the journal and ensure it continues to foreground the dynamic research, teaching, and praxis that characterise the discipline.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But this work cannot be undertaken without deeply and sincerely acknowledging the work of my Editor-in-Chief predecessor, Elaine Stratford. Put simply, the journal has flourished under Elaine’s leadership over the last decade. There will, I hope, be other opportunities to formally recognise Elaine’s contributions but the journal’s current success and reputation by any range of metrics—be that impact factor, international readership, or number of submissions—is a result of Elaine’s ongoing care, vision, and commitment. I draw readers’ attention to the tribute in the recent newsletter of the Institute of Australian Geographers (IAG) (&lt;span&gt;2024&lt;/span&gt;) for more heartfelt reflections.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Elaine will continue as Senior Associate Editor to the benefit of the entire editorial team, and it is a collective I join with great enthusiasm. I am already indebted to Kirstie Petrou for her patience and knowledge as editorial assistant, and I have received a warm welcome from Brian Cook, Clare Mouat, Patrick Moss, Miriam Williams, and Alexander Burton in the editorial team as well as Simon Goudie and colleagues at Wiley. I look forward to developing relationships with the editorial board and colleagues at the IAG Council over time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Of course, reflections on the purpose of &lt;i&gt;Geographical Research&lt;/i&gt; need to be considered within their wider context.

Moss","doi":"10.1111/1745-5871.70000","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/1745-5871.70000","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;“Resilience” is an increasingly important term, which is used to characterise the ability of a system (either human or natural) to cope with uncertainty and change. This term has been supplementing “sustainability” and “vulnerability” in policy and academic discourse, as well as being positioned as a response to global climate change and natural hazards in particular (Achour et al., &lt;span&gt;2015&lt;/span&gt;; Weichselgartner &amp; Kelman, &lt;span&gt;2015&lt;/span&gt;). The importance of this concept has become apparent to me with the development of the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) Resilience Centre, which has been developed to bring together researchers from a wide range of disciplines within the institution, facilitate engagement with other academic institutions, government, and industry, and provide the capacity to develop multidisciplinary teams centred on resilience. The key focus areas are climate, communities, disasters infrastructure, and nature, which match QUT strengths, as well as having a high degree of crossover. I am directly involved with the QUT Resilience Centre (as the Climate Theme Leader), and with its development, I have grappled with the definition and practicalities of “resilience,” as well as the role that place and time play in understanding the concept.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As a geographer, I see “place” as a central component of “resilience,” that is, the resilience of a system, whether natural or human, is directly related to the geographic characteristics of a location. For instance, the resilience of Brisbane is directly related to the place it is situated within. This is starkly illustrated by the Brisbane River or Maiwar (indigenous name of the river) and colloquially referred to as “The Brown Snake” (QUT [Queensland University of Technology] Digital Collection, &lt;span&gt;2024&lt;/span&gt;). Its modern-day characteristics (since European colonisation) are shaped by the fact it is tidal and has experienced extensive urbanisation and dredging, which in combination has significantly increased sediment load over the last 200 years (ABC, &lt;span&gt;2017&lt;/span&gt;). Despite these alterations, the Brisbane River has been relatively resilient in the face of significant land use and land cover changes (Kemp et al., &lt;span&gt;2015&lt;/span&gt;). However, particular challenges for resilience in the 21st century in the context of the Brisbane River are disasters in the form of floods, with the significant flood events of January 2011 and February 2022.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A wealth of academic discourse has emerged in relation to these events, with a focus on framing the floods in the context of media definitions and broader community narratives (Bohensky &amp; Leitch, &lt;span&gt;2014&lt;/span&gt;), building community resilience (Hayes &amp; Goonetilleke, &lt;span&gt;2012&lt;/span&gt;), and flood immunity myths (Cook, &lt;span&gt;2018&lt;/span&gt;). In addition, much of the research into resilience has been implemented in planning for climate resilience (Brage &amp; Leardini, &lt;span&gt;2018&lt;/span&gt;), water sensitive design (Za","PeriodicalId":47233,"journal":{"name":"Geographical Research","volume":"63 1","pages":"6-8"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1745-5871.70000","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143447151","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}

However, for learners and educators, imagination can take shape against a backdrop of existential ecological concern, where climate change “encompasses and exacerbates nearly every other problem threatening human progress in the twenty first century” (United Nations, <span>2014</span>, p.30). Learners and educators are exposed to an abundance of information about climate change that can be divisive, impersonal, and difficult to process. Scholars increasingly acknowledge that scientific accounts alone “do not offer relatable, connective or inspiring accounts of human-climate relationships” (Verlie, <span>2022</span>, p. 3).</p><p>The papers in this special section illustrate different ways in which storytelling is helping learners and educators to understand their entanglements with climate change across times and places, and to build collective responses with solidarity at their centre. Together, the papers highlight valuable affordances of stories and storytelling in the context of climate change education (CCE). Stories generate empathy, enable personal and collective sense-making, and can mobilise transnational solidarity. In a highly uneven global landscape of climate vulnerability and agency, the papers also show different meanings of climate justice for young people to address the climate crisis and its complexity and the inequalities written therein.</p><p>Our aim to create a collection of storytelling papers themed around solidarity in CCE was motivated primarily by the young people whom we have spoken to in our research and teaching, but it also ties together calls for more attention to empathy, inclusivity, and creativity in CCE. Scholars have advanced arguments to expand CCE beyond the domain of scientific knowledge to better engage and support learners who report feeling overwhelmed and anxious because of climate change (Baker et al., <span>2020</span>; Halstead et al., <span>2021</span>; Trott, <span>2024</span>; Verlie, <span>2022</span>; Walker et al., <span>2022</span>). Rousell and Cutter-Mackenzie-Knowles (<span>2020</span>), p.203) have completed a systematic review of CCE highlighting the marginalisation of arts and humanities in CCE and have called for participatory and creative approaches that “empower children and young people to meaningfully engage with entanglements of climate fact, value, power and concern across multiple scales and temporalities” and that are “open to radical and visionary alternatives for the future.”</p><p>The capacity for stories to open the imagination to alternative futures has been further explored by those who have used speculative fiction in their research and teaching practice (Bowman &amp; Germaine, <span>2022</span>; Finnegan, <span>2023</span>).

In the semi-arid Northeast of Brazil, the morphostructural context, in line with crustal mechanics, acts on the transmission of materials along the channels, conditioning the spatial juxtaposition between stretches of rocky and alluvial bottom resulting from the creation of accommodation spaces and sediment storage that promote primary river disconnection. By applying morphometric indices to the Carnaúba River watershed, state of Rio Grande do Norte, this work identified how the action of crustal deformations, conditioned by the reactivation of shear-zones, and drainage superimposition to lithological units discordantly disposed to the main channel, contributed to creating morphological compartments dominated by aggradation. The data indicate that the Cenozoic tectonics operating in the watershed created accommodation spaces controlled by knickpoints, grabens and rocky sills.
