In dialogue with 12 middle-class migrant women, this paper sketches a complex picture of the ways informal and unpaid caring activities are conducted across multiple scales of body, home, countries of origin and Aotearoa. The findings revealed migrant women’s caring activities were disturbed, intensified, and informed by spatial structures of the pandemic, including border closures, lockdowns and (in)accessibility to care services in Aotearoa and their homelands. These results highlight further that unpaid care, both at transnational and local levels, is not simply due to an individual’s capacity and feelings of responsibility, but is also a collective spatial construction that is shaped by a range of social, cultural, and political factors. Our research emphasises that addressing mental health challenges of migrant women during the pandemic requires targeted policies that acknowledge their invisible emotional labour and cater to their specific needs.","PeriodicalId":48072,"journal":{"name":"Social & Cultural Geography","volume":"14 17-18","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135972815","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 show how they currently remain in a state of indeterminate standby as the future of the resort remains uncertain, put in this state of limbo by the capacity of the resort’s owners to exploit their disposability and manipulability. We investigate the rich material and sensory qualities of the island, and investigate the everyday practices that characterize how the men live and work there. First, we illustrate how the island remains haunted by the workers and tourists who formerly inhabited this space, since much of the resort infrastructure remains. Second, we explore how the buildings and things on the island are unevenly intact, in a state of partial ruination. Third, we discuss how the inexpert daily maintenance practices undertaken by the three men focus on certain areas but neglect others. Finally, we emphasize that despite their uncertain future, the men endeavour to create a stable, convivial and pleasurable island home.","PeriodicalId":48072,"journal":{"name":"Social & Cultural Geography","volume":"57 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135413439","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}

Urban spatial segregation, surveillance of immigrants and BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of colour) city dwellers, and community organizing to resist these processes is well represented in social science literature. Rural contexts feature less prominently in such explorations. I draw on ethnographic research in a Midwest community to make visible the racialization of rural spaces and to illustrate how such racialization frames belonging as contingent on assimilation to white investments in rural space. I draw on the examples of homeownership, commercial space, and public gathering spaces to illustrate the prevalence of white, Euro-American spatiotemporal commitments at work in rural communities as well as how this hegemonic framework can be challenged. By laying bare the social processes enacted through the geographies of everyday life, I hope to point towards more capacious and inclusive possibilities of rural belonging.RESUMENLas comunidades rurales del medio oeste de Estados Unidos de América del siglo XXI están experimentando cambios demográficos e industrialización de maneras que desafían los supuestos sobre la cohesión social rural. La segregación espacial urbana, la vigilancia de los inmigrantes y habitantes BIPOC (negros, indígenas y de colour) en las ciudades y la organización comunitaria para resistir estos procesos, están bien representadas en la literatura de las ciencias sociales. Los contextos rurales ocupan un lugar menos prominente en tales exploraciones. Me baso en la investigación etnográfica en una comunidad del medio oeste de EUA para hacer visible la racialización de los espacios rurales e ilustrar cómo dicha racialización enmarca la pertenencia como contingente de la asimilación de inversiones de la comunidad blanca en el espacio rural. Me baso en los ejemplos de propiedad de vivienda, espacios comerciales y espacios públicos para ilustrar la prevalencia de estándares espaciotemporales euroamericanos blancos en funcionamiento de las comunidades rurales, así como cómo se puede desafiar este marco hegemónico. Al dejar al descubierto los procesos sociales a través de las geografías de la vida cotidiana, espero señalar posibilidades más amplias e inclusivas de pertenencia rural.RÉSUMÉAu vingt-et-unième siècle, les communautés rurales du Midwest américain vivent une industrialization et des bouleversements démographiques si profonds que la cohésion sociale de leur milieu est remise en question.

I explore how these queer Latinx worldmakings are created and lived through the formation of chosen families or familias and the organizing of family dinners. Latinx queer worldmakings are temporary productions of social worlds that facilitate navigating life in the present while being queer and Latinx to resist as well as reconfigure disciplining heteronormative and white supremacist processes. It is the process of performing and creating a present that is oriented towards the future. I argue that such queer Latinx worldmakings counter white heteronormative social-spatial norms and carcerality, while also providing important lessons on what it means to live, love, and make place in and beyond the prison. The Latinx incarcerated women participants queered prison life by engaging in informal economies, negotiating relationships with correction officers, and securing ingredients for family dinners. By using an autoethnographic/testimonio approach and conversations with an incarcerated family member and friends, I explore two ways Latinx queer worldmakings are enacted: the creation of chosen families, and the organizing of family dinners.ResumenEste estudio ilustra cómo lxs latinxs encarcelados crean mundos sociales alternativos o Queer mientras negocian la vida cotidiana en prisión. Exploro cómo se crean y viven estas creaciones del mundo Queer Latinx a través de la formación de familias elegidas y la organización de cenas familiares. Sostengo que tales creaciones del mundo Queer Latinx contradicen las normas socio espaciales heteronormativas blancas y de encarcelamiento, al mismo tiempo que brindan lecciones importantes sobre lo que significa vivir, amar y hacerse un lugar dentro y más allá de la prisión. Utilizando un enfoque auto etnográfico/testimonio y conversaciones con un familiar encarcelado y amigos, exploro dos formas en que se implementan las creaciones del mundo Queer Latinx: la creación de familias elegidas y la organización de cenas familiares.RésuméCette étude illustre la manière dont les prisonniers latino-américains créent des mondes sociaux alternatifs, autrement dit des fabrications de mondes queer, pendant qu’ils gèrent le quotidien de la vie en incarcération.

It is part of a Special Issue on (Em)placing the Popular in Cultural Geography. The essay opens out a set of questions and prompts for reflection about the relationship (or, more often, the weird non-relationship) between disciplines of Social and Cultural Geography and contemporary popular cultures. At its heart, you’ll find six fragments of autoethnographic writing dealing with: popular cultural absences and silences in the written canon of Human Geography; joy and recognition, but also the burden of doing justice to popular cultures; and manifold antipathies towards academic work on popular culture.ResumenEste ensayo trata sobre muchas cosas, incluidas, entre otras, Cyrille Regis, Delia Derbyshire, una insignia de Ewok, Mickey Mouse, Napalm Death, las familias Sylvanian, correo anónimo de odio, duelo, las luminosas culturas populares de la región central de Inglaterra, a menudo desaprobadas; la ausencia de tantas culturas populares sorprendentes en Geografía Social y Cultural, y mi propio fracaso recurrente para escribir sobre estas cosas.

These are communal places of inhabitancy that draw attention to the intersecting concerns of highly mobile populations, seasonal labour, migration politics, and the socio-material relationships that flourish within such spaces. I examine the presence of bed bugs and other nonhumans through interviews with farm workers, hostel operators and managers, and ethnographic observations, to highlight broader implications of such ‘communal’ forms of living. The communal nature of living alongside others is challenging, especially when the arrangement is for work and migration, rather than leisure, and due to a lack of affordable housing options. The paper uses a more-than-human lens to bring into dialogue the mobilities of these workers with notions of communal living, which are intrinsically tied to visa conditions and labour migration. In doing so, the paper contributes to broadening the understandings of how and where mobilities take shape, and the impacts that more-than-human agencies have on day-to-day life in communal living situations.","PeriodicalId":48072,"journal":{"name":"Social & Cultural Geography","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135816196","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}

The research that informs this book is based on a series of studies that included critical policy analysis, archival fieldwork, and quantitative-qualitative methods involving interviews and short-term participatory ethnography. Bringing these sources of information together, the analyses reveal insights into the different ways in which youth citizenship and moral values are intertwined in and through the spaces of education within both historical and contemporary contexts. In doing so, the book centrally advances the importance of geographical lenses in understanding character education and citizenship formations among youths, specifically those of spatialities, multi-scalar politics, and geopolitics.
