Building on these insights and employing a historical materialist framework, the article explores the effects of the ethnonationalist <em>state</em> on gender. Specifically, it asks what impact does the ethnonationalist state form have on gender power relations? The article argues that ethnonationalist states’ central logic lies in the reproduction of racialized social forces and, as a result, it strategically buttresses and depletes social forces through the weaponization of social reproduction. Because ethnonationalist states aim to undermine social reproduction of subordinated ethnic groups, this manifests in intense violence directed at women. The article demonstrates this argument using data generated from qualitative time-use studies conducted in Myanmar and Sri Lanka—two ethnonationalist states characterized by violent ethnic cleavages, comparable variations in conflict geographies, and the political mobilization of Buddhism. It connects gender-based violence across the home-front and the warfront, revealing patriarchal violence as crucial to the project of war. In conclusion, the article suggests that academics and practitioners seeking to understand and contend with the ethnonationalist state would benefit from a clear-eyed assessment of one of its central logics: the reproduction of the racialized gender order.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 103340"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144090312","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}

Voting shares are linked to a broad set of spatial determinants for regional discontent. Results show that the parties have distinct electoral geographies and indicate different roots of discontent.

That has especially been true of scholarship employing methods of counterforensic documentation—methods turning the state's monopoly on forensic investigation of crimes towards the investigation of the state (cf. Weizman, 2017). The idea has been that manifestation and accompanying enumeration of violence and suffering would offer proof that border enforcement methods are violent, and that this documentation would compel a change to harmful policies. This goal has been stymied by how agencies charged with enforcing security deny their responsibility for death and injury, instead casting themselves as humanitarian saviors of border crossers at risk. In many ways, this palliates scholarly efforts where they appear in superficial consensus with these border agencies, even as the latter use this apparent consensus to deflect their own role in the violence that occurs. Mindful of these issues, this paper pioneers what we call a “geography of intent.” Plotting the geography of integrated fixed towers (IFTs)—border surveillance technology placed in remote wilderness settings—in relation to sources of safety and shelter, we reveal an intentional placement of this technology to deny access to the few life-saving resources in the dangerous wilderness zones into which migration has been intentionally corralled. This paper also offers a geostatistical vantage on the corporeal effects of this practice.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 103332"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144084036","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}

I reveal how the mountain ecology of La Mariposa significantly influenced policy and politics through its articulation in particular relational conceptions of the territory mobilized by different actors in the project. This ecology became an actor in governance, not as a site of response to an event or a potential event but as an ontologically formed entity co-creating policy through its various conceptions and registers. I contend that macromurals are the product of tipping point urbanism, a hopeful approach to governing self-built settlements in which the intended transformation lies not in the macromural itself but in the process of its implementation. I further claim that the category “fading,” with its physical and symbolic dimensions, represents a fundamental heuristic to comprehend the outcomes of macromurals and other social interventions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 103337"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144069756","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}

Much of the literature on the geographies of discontent has primarily examined economic hardship and the populist appeal. This paper offers a new perspective, using a deviant case study of the Netherlands to better understand why people see their place as being neglected. Through ethnographic fieldwork and in-depth interviews with community leaders and residents from the rural periphery, more specifically northeast Fryslân, this research develops detailed descriptions of six perceptions of regional neglect. The findings highlight a deeply ingrained place recognition gap, stemming from perceptions of one's place being sidelined in regional development plans serving urban growth, being devalued for rural and regional ways of living, and being dominated from a distance by central politics. Even the atypical Dutch case reflects perceptions of one's region being kept at the bottom found in more typical cases. The Netherlands is an outlier that fits in. This paper concludes that the geography of discontent is not about hardship alone, but for an important part is driven by relative deprivation and self-perceived status of place.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 103349"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143947947","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}

Drawing on a hermeneutic literature review and elite interviews, we critically analyse the competing mechanisms underlying these narratives. We identify three core risks of green colonialism: domination, accumulation, and appropriation. Conversely, we outline three strategic responses for fostering a green transformation: ensuring voice, obtaining a stake, and fostering autonomy. By positioning these perspectives in dialogue, we move beyond binary assessments, highlighting the tensions, contradictions, and possibilities embedded in the emerging clean hydrogen landscape. Our findings contribute to debates on post-colonial resource governance, energy transitions, and the geopolitics of sustainability, offering a lens to analyse the equity implications of trade and investment not only in hydrogen, but also in other resource sectors, including raw materials and biofuels.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 103338"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143937650","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}

While mass shootings in the US receive public attention, rarely is the relationship between mass shootings and domestic violence a focus of media coverage.

Domestic violence abusers with access to firearms also commonly engage in nonlethal forms of firearm abuse. This paper contributes to a growing body of scholarship on firearm abuse by analyzing survivors' accounts of nonlethal firearm abuse in Domestic Violence Protection Order documents as a form of spatial control. Specifically, this paper details three tactics of nonlethal firearm abuse – direct firearm abuse, threats of firearm abuse and brandishing firearms – to illustrate how nonlethal firearm abuse is a form of everyday terrorism that extends abusers spatial control and threatens survivors' bodily autonomy and corporeal security. This paper's focus on survivors' experiences of fear in response to nonlethal firearm abuse illustrates the significance of emotion as a tactic of entrapment, reinforcing that survivors' feelings of fear in response to nonlethal firearm abuse is not spatially bound to the home or the actively abusive relationship.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48262,"journal":{"name":"Political Geography","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 103339"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143937609","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}

We investigate three distinct sites: the waiting area, legal helpdesks, and <em>in absentia</em> master calendar hearings. In each, we highlight how such encounters can rework institutional flows of information, make space for connection, and break the legal circuits of “due process as usual.” To support this argument we explore how various distancing practices, both particular to and extending beyond the COVID-19 pandemic, curtailed bids for legal protection by alienating <em>pro se</em> respondents and, in more mundane ways, by restricting opportunities for public encounter and informal support.
