Authoritarianism has emerged as a prominent theme in popular and
academic discussions of politics since the 2016 US presidential
election and the coinciding expansion of authoritarian rhetoric and
ideals across Europe, Asia, and beyond. Until recently, however,
academic geographers have not focused squarely on the concept of
authoritarianism. Its longstanding absence from the field is
noteworthy as geographers have made extensive contributions to
theorizing structural inequalities, injustice, and other
expressions of oppressive or illiberal power relations and their
diverse spatialities. Identifying this void, Spatializing
Authoritarianism builds upon recent research to show that even when
conceptualized as a set of practices rather than as a simple
territorial label, authoritarianism has a spatiality: both drawing
from and producing political space and scale in many often
surprising ways. This volume advances the argument that
authoritarianism must be investigated by accounting for the many
scales at which it is produced, enacted, and imagined. Including a
diverse array of theoretical perspectives and empirical cases drawn
from the Global South and North, this collection illustrates the
analytical power of attending to authoritarianism's diverse scalar
and spatial expressions, and how intimately connected it is with
identity narratives, built landscapes, borders, legal systems,
markets, and other territorial and extraterritorial expressions of
power.
