Against the backdrop of President Denis Sassou Nguesso's enduring authoritarian rule and intensified repression following the 2015–2016 elections, Congolese resisters are transforming domestic and sacred spaces such as private homes and churches into terrains of resistance. Through empirical research and drawing on theories of everyday resistance, spatial strategies, and slow resistance, the paper reveals how these terrains of resistance have endured even after overt protests subsided. It argues that understanding the spatialities of resistance in Congo-Brazzaville requires examining how Congolese navigate and subvert state power through subtle, everyday acts of resistance that exploit the spatial dynamics of authoritarian control. The findings highlight the emotional, spatial, and temporal dimensions of resistance, illuminating how these practices contribute to the gradual construction of oppositional political consciousness that reconfigures power relations over time. By examining these spatio-temporal practices of resistance, the paper challenges narratives of political apathy under Sassou's rule and contributes to the rich scholarship of critical political geography and resistance studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 103320"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143724932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The expression <em>Pa'l Norte</em>, commonly used by those traversing migratory routes in Mexico, is not limited to ‘towards the north’ in a literal or geographical sense. Based on ethnographic and participatory research, the article illustrates how <em>Pa'l Norte</em> is both a tangible and imagined destination that encompasses diverse relational intimacies, including safety, hope, love, fear, and trauma. Assuming a geopolitically produced gender exclusion in crossing borders, it explores how changes in infrastructure and migration policies since 2020, including the halt of <em>la Bestia</em>, a transpacific cargo train frequently used by migrants, along with transnational migration governance aimed at preventing northbound movement, have influenced people's (dis) ability move in southern Mexico, perpetuating historical exclusions and violence, including the erosion of women's bodily autonomy. By gendering the concept of viapolitics and providing an intimate reading of it, the article unpacks how women's intimate experiences of moving slowly and paying with their bodies, and sometimes their lives, in southern Mexico today relate to other women's experiences in different places and times.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 103317"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143682082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings show that in its most current form, the concept has developed into a kind of “catch-all” approach designed to garner support for Russia outside of the potentially narrow confines of the Russian ethnolinguistic community, allowing Moscow to pursue and achieve a wide variety of strategic foreign-policy goals both within and outside of the post-Soviet space.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 103315"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143642260","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Asylum and refugee camps – both formal and informal – are growing in size and scope, becoming more permanent features on their respective landscapes. Our attention in this article is focused on the space of the camp itself, which has long been marked by profoundly unequal relations of power. A common theme that characterizes camps, whether operated by the UNHCR or any other group, is that of control exercised over the inhabitants’ daily lives, routines, and mobilities. In this article, we consider what the reality of camp life looks like for those within them, drawing on the voices of the (multiple) dispossessed and how they experience everyday life in these places. Our argument is not that camps represent spaces of control; that much is both self-evident and confirmed by much scholarship through the years. Drawing on interviews with camp residents –both refugees and asylum seekers–across different regions and displaced by different contexts, we look at some of the key features that characterize life within the camp, that illustrate what forms control might take, and also indicate the ways in which camp residents seek to actively resist and transform those regimes of control.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 103316"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143628167","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While recent theory has explored ways in which the local state has promoted socially progressive goals under neoliberalism, this work has focused almost entirely on economic-rather than social-goals. We extend this work by developing a concept of the local state in the promotion of social and gender-justice agendas. We do this by bringing scholarships on the local state; feminist urbanism and arts-led feminist activism to bear on a case study of Bristol, UK. Through an analysis of the ways Bristol has activated urban space to challenge sexual harassment through collaborations with artists and third-sector partners, we extend understanding of how the local state can re-script urban space as spaces of resistance, through which more emancipatory forms of urban life might be possible. We argue that the local state has an important role to play in combatting sexual harassment and other forms of gender-based violence and drawing forth the anti-sexist city. We advance theory in and beyond Geography about what local states can be and do, and submit that the forms of urban innovation seen in Bristol constitute a model of how the local state can promote anti-sexist place-making.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"118 ","pages":"Article 103290"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143519538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
