Emotional Geographies Summary

Emotional Geographies by Liz Bondi

Bringing together well-established interdisciplinary scholars - including geographers Phil Hubbard, Chris Philo and Hester Parr, and sociologists Jenny Hockey, Mike Hepworth and John Urry - and a new generation of researchers, this volume presents a wide range of innovative studies of fundamentally important questions of emotion. Following an overarching introduction, three interlinked sections elaborate key intersections between emotions and spatial concepts, on which each chapter offers a particular take informed by substantive research. At the heart of the collection lies a commitment to convey how emotions always spill over from one domain to another, as well as to illuminate the multiplicity of spaces that produce and are produced by emotional life. The book demonstrates the richness that an interdisciplinary engagement with the emotionality of socio-spatial life generates.

Matthew Collins, University of Sheffield, UK '...Emotional Geographies elegantly succeeds in demonstrating just how critical participation in an emotionally- and rationally-engaged collaboration might look.' Space and Culture 'The text's editors argue cogently for an "emotional turn" in geography, and provide an interesting and thought provoking work...' European Spatial Research and Policy '... the research [...] is compelling and well-written, and certainly highlights the shifting contours of what we call human geography over the past decade.' International Journal of Heritage Studies '... the volume edited by Davidson et al. offers a powerful example of the prescient contributions made by the affective turn in the interdisciplinary concerns of the field of human geography...Each individu
