While extensive scholarship exists on gender-water relations in the region, it predominantly focuses on women’s roles and responsibilities, seldom considering the role of masculinities. This paper examines masculinities, gender relations, and women’s embodied experiences of water insecurity. It situates women’s embodied experiences of water insecurity within household and community masculinities. The study was conducted in Lilongwe, Malawi, and data were drawn from interviews, focus groups, observations, and household surveys. The findings advance the gender-water literature in at least three significant ways. First, they demonstrate how gendered labour underpins women’s embodied experiences of water insecurity. Second, they show that women’s decisions and strategies for coping with water insecurity are themselves an embodied consequence of water insecurity. Finally, they illuminate how men’s perceptions and constructions of masculinity, expressed through marital expectations of femininity, shape women’s embodied experiences of water insecurity. Together, the findings reveal intricate intersections between masculinities, gender relations, and women’s everyday embodied experiences of water insecurity, validating the body as a significant site of geographic inquiry.","PeriodicalId":48072,"journal":{"name":"Social & Cultural Geography","volume":"525 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136174014","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}

Lobo","doi":"10.1080/14649365.2023.2177718","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/14649365.2023.2177718","url":null,"abstract":"The global COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in multiple intersecting intensities of space, time and power relations. For many, the dialectic processes of intensification and prolongation have characterised the experience of periods of government-mandated emergency restrictions. Power relations intensified at scales ranging from the state level to (shifting) workspaces and the intimate spaces of homes and domestic violence. Governmental responses (or lack of response) to the pandemic had geopolitical and biopolitical implications e.g. through border closures, ‘shelter at home’ directives, limited provision for refugees, prisoners and the homeless, and both draconian and laissez-faire regulation of risk. Combined, Covid-related health risks and associated governmental responses (or lack of response) also created new or enhanced situated experiences of housing, work, personal, food, social and mental health precarity; these precarities were often multilayered and reflected intersectional inequalities, especially for the poorest in society. Social and cultural geographies represent a wide-ranging sub-discipline. As the name implies, it brings social topics such as employment, wealth, inequalities housing, migration, gender and race-ethnicity, into dialogue with more culturally facing topics such as identity, community, consumption, emotion and affect, ritual practices, art, representations and landscapes. Moreover, using a geographical lens, these topics are investigated in and in relation to specific spatialities, spatial practices and environments. This affords situated studies of the effects of the pandemic on individuals and social-cultural groups, not least those experiencing multiple intersectional burdens. Further, ‘As socio-economic, cultural, and political relations are being reconfigured as a result of the pandemic, geographers have an opportunity to provide analyses and critiques, and identify good practices and mechanisms for change that can inform practice and policy-making’ as well as collective actions that challenge inequalities, including entrenched racial injustice and violence. Ultimately, ‘COVID-19 presents opportunities for social and cultural geographers to evidence obscured or ignored geographical inequalities and agencies, capitalising on the increased attention given to issues of social justice engendered by the pandemic, as well as to work collaboratively with practitioners and policymakers to make a difference in a world impacted by Covid-19’ (Ho and Maddrell 2021: 7). The empirically rich papers presented here evidence the value of the research questions, methods and analyses and the ensuing insights of social-cultural geographies, including those of political-policy import. For essential workers, especially those working in critical health and social care, hours of work and the associated risks, physical, intellectual and emotional labour involved, all intensified in the first phase of the pandemic.

SME is a digital ecosystem representing a cultural assertion as much as commercial media production, where individuals, communities, industries, and regulations engage in economic, social, and political fields.

Consequently, animal research has formed the focus of intense ethical concern and regulation within the UK, in order to minimize the suffering and pain experienced by those animals whose living bodies model human diseases amongst other things. This paper draws on longitudinal ethnographic research and in-depth interviews undertaken with junior laboratory animal technicians (ATs) in UK universities between 2013 and 2015, plus insights from interviews with key stakeholders in laboratory animal welfare. In our analysis, we examine four key dimensions of care work in laboratory animal research: (i) the specific skills and sensitivities required; (ii) the role of previous experiences of animal care; (iii) the influence of institutional and affective environments and (iv) experiences of killing. We propose that different notions of care are enacted alongside, not only permitted levels of harm inflicted on research animals following research protocols, but also harms to ATs in the processes of caring and killing animals. Concluding, we argue for greater articulation of the coexistence of care and harms across debates in geography about care and human-animal relations.</p>","PeriodicalId":48072,"journal":{"name":"Social & Cultural Geography","volume":"24 1","pages":"49-66"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14649365.2021.1901977","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10660503","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, there is little attention to how different institutional cultures of care interact and what happens to the accountabilities of caring roles and the entanglements of caring practices when institutional cultures meet. Drawing on research exploring the increasing practices of patient and public involvement (PPI) within animal research in the UK, we identify three ways in which cultures of care are changing in encounters between biomedical researchers and people affected by health conditions. Firstly, patient involvement in animal research brings additional bodies to <i>care for</i> within research facilities. Secondly, patient and public groups are seen as an increasingly important group to <i>convey a culture of care</i> to. Thirdly, involvement brings opportunities for patients and publics to <i>connect care</i> for both human and animals. However, more attention is required to understand how shifts towards cultures of care distribute power and responsibility to care within institutions and at their boundaries, where responsibilities to care may be disconnected from the power to effect meaningful changes.</p>","PeriodicalId":48072,"journal":{"name":"Social & Cultural Geography","volume":"24 1","pages":"121-139"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14649365.2020.1814850","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10585223","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 lockdown was particularly difficult for older adults, who were deemed 'vulnerable' because many felt unsafe leaving the house and often forced to self-isolate. In this paper, we interpret the lockdowns as a period of prolonged stillness: breaks from everyday practices, including withdrawnness, inefficiency, and retreat. We extend ideas of stillness by integrating the capability approach, which shows how the opportunities and challenges that arise from moments of stillness are dependent on a combination of individual agency and the role of structural or contextual factors. Using the accounts of thirty-eight older adults in the Netherlands and England, we show how the COVID-19 lockdowns established and encouraged different types of stillness which had differing impacts upon the older adults' lives. The effect of the prolonged stillness on these different areas of everyday life is based on individual agency and contextual factors, such as choosing to volunteer or having an adequate internet connection. Thus, our findings contribute to discussions around active ageing and demonstrate that slowing down, and spending more time at home, can provide respite from an otherwise active everyday life.</p>","PeriodicalId":48072,"journal":{"name":"Social & Cultural Geography","volume":"24 3-4","pages":"447-466"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/1c/e5/RSCG_24_2000019.PMC10069370.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9260489","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}
