This cutting-edge book explores and advances contemporary
geographical understandings of resistance. Calling for geographers
to focus on the emergence of resistance and to avoid making
assumptions on the forms it takes, chapters critically interrogate
concepts of resistance and illustrate the political potential of
re-thinking them. Engaging with anarchist, feminist and
postcolonial scholarship, this book traces existing debates on
resistance in geography and suggests how they can be productively
reanimated. Contributors explore multiple and everyday spaces,
subjects, and temporalities of resistance, reconsidering the study
of resistance in light of recent ontological developments,
including in non-representational theory, the non-human,
post-politics and more-than-human geographies. Using detailed case
studies, the book examines what critical geographies of resistance
might look like in practice, providing insight on how geography can
respond to and engage with the contemporary world. This book will
be a fascinating read for scholars and students of human, social
and cultural geography, geopolitics, sociology, and those studying
resistance across the social sciences. It will also be of interest
to activists looking to formulate alternative resistant claims and
practices.
