This collection broaches the intersections of critical motherhood
studies and feminist geography. Contributors demonstrate that an
important dimension of the social construction of motherhood is how
mothering happens in space and place, leading to the articulation
of diverse maternal geographies. Through 16 concise chapters
divided into three thematic sections, the contributors provide an
account of motherhood and mothering as spatial practices that are
embedded in relations of power across time and place. While some
contributors explore how dominant discourses of motherhood seek to
keep mothers in their place, others take up the notion of maternal
geographies as productive in their own right and follow their
subjects as they create a new sense of place. Collectively, the
authors demonstrate that mothers are produced and regulated as
subjects in relation to space and place, and also that practices of
mothering produce spatial relationships. The scholars gathered here
bring interdisciplinary approaches from diverse fields including
women's and gender studies, sexuality studies, social geography,
sociology, anthropology, fine arts, literary studies, and film
studies. Chapters include submissions from authors who reference
the geographical contexts of Aotearoa/New Zealand, Argentina,
Australia, Brazil, Canada, the Eastern Caribbean, Great Britain,
Japan and Samoa, and the United States.
