A field-defining collection of new voices on gender, feminism, and
geography. Feminist Geography Unbound is a call to action-to expand
imaginations and to read and travel more widely and carefully
through terrains that have been cast as niche, including Indigenous
and decolonial feminisms, Black geographies, and trans geographies.
The original essays in this collection center three themes to
unbind and enable different feminist futures: discomfort as a site
where differences generate both productive and immobilizing
frictions, gendered and racialized bodies as sites of political
struggle, and the embodied work of building the future. Drawing on
diverse theoretical backgrounds and a range of field sites,
contributors consider how race, gender, citizenship, and class
often determine who feels comfort and who is tasked with producing
it. They work through bodies as terrains of struggle that make
claims to space and enact political change, and they ask how these
politics prefigure the futures that we fear or desire. The book
also champions feminist geography as practice, through interviews
with feminist scholars and interludes in which feminist collectives
speak to their experience inhabiting and transforming academic
spaces. Feminist Geography Unbound is grounded in a feminist
geography that has long forced the discipline to grapple with the
production of difference, the unequal politics of knowledge
production, and gender's constitutive role in shaping social life.
