For the scope and significance of her ideas seem to have been enormous; just think of the very different disciplines that have benefited from her spatial vision (take only the ones present in the book: political science, sociology, anthropology, and psychology, even the arts, not to mention the practice of politics itself) … Here we have a group of scholars … taking Massey’s work in new and exciting directions, and we have eighteen excellent examples of how to do it.” (\u003ci\u003eAntipode\u003c\/i\u003e , 1 September 2013)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Figures viii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNotes on Contributors ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eForeword xiv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSeries Editors’ Preface xix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements xx\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction: ‘There is no point of departure’: The Many Trajectories of Doreen Massey 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eDavid Featherstone and Joe Painter\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart One: Space, Politics and Radical Democracy 19\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Space, Hegemony and Radical Critique 21\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChantal Mouffe\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Theorising Context 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLawrence Grossberg\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Power-Geometry as Philosophy of Space 44\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eArun Saldanha\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Spatial Relations and Human Relations 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMichael Rustin\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Space, Democracy and Difference: For a Post-colonial Perspective 70\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eDavid Slater\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Two: Regions, Labour and Uneven Development 85\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Spatial Divisions and Regional Assemblages 87\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAllan Cochrane\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Making Space for Labour 99\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJamie Peck\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 The Political Challenge of Relational Territory 115\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eElena dell’Agnese\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterlude: Your Gravitational Now 125\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eOlafur Eliasson\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Three: Reconceptualising Place 133\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Place and Politics 135\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJane Wills\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 A Global Sense of Place and Multi-territoriality: Notes for Dialogue from a ‘Peripheral’ Point of View 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eRogério Haesbaert\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 A Massey Muse 158\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eWendy Harcourt, Alice Brooke Wilson, Arturo Escobar and Dianne Rocheleau\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 A Physical Sense of World 178\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eSteve Hinchliffe\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Four: Political Trajectories 189\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 Working with Doreen Downunder: Antipodean Trajectories 191\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSophie Bond and Sara Kindon\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 Doreen Massey: The Light Dances on the Water 204\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eAsh Amin and Nigel Thrift\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 Place, Space and Solidarity in Global Justice Networks 213\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eAndrew Cumbers and Paul Routledge\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 The Socialist Transformation of Venezuela: The Geographical Dimension of Political Strategy 224\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eRicardo Menéndez\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 Place Beyond Place and the Politics of ‘Empowerment’ 235\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHilary Wainwright\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e18 ‘Stories So Far’: A Conversation with Doreen Massey 253\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eEdited by David Featherstone, Sophie Bond and Joe Painter\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 267\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 289\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Wiley and Sons Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49408392364375,"sku":"9781444338300","price":23.74,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781444338300.jpg?v=1730502734","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/spatial-politics-9781444338300","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
