[csaa-forum] Call for Chapters: Environments of Power, Landscapes of Resistance

[Randell-Moon, Holly]

Dear Colleagues,

I am currently editing a book for Manchester University Press and I am looking for 1 more contribution to the book. The publisher is keen for a chapter focusing on the Asia-Pacific but any research on the general theme of environments (broadly understood), space, and race would be welcome. I've put a precis of the book below if you are interested. Early career researchers, postgraduate students, and independent scholars are welcome.

Chapters are 7,500w inclusive of references and would need to be submitted in a month(ish) so if you have something ready to go that would be ideal. Please do get in touch if you have any further queries or questions.

Kind regards,
Holly.

Environments of Power, Landscapes of Resistance demonstrates how environments influence which bodies and other matter belong (or not) in certain places. The collection explains the role of environments, whether physical or virtual, in the production of spatial and social power. A range of environmental phenomena are examined where race is salient to excluding Indigenous peoples and peoples of colour from social, political, and geographical spaces. Case studies include environmental activism against the Dakota Access Pipeline in the United States, racism in educational spaces, Pasifika histories of migration in the South Pacific, non-human agency in ecological settings, social media surveillance, and policing, social  work, and refugee policy across the South Pacific and the Americas. 
 
The book responds to and is informed by three central theoretical foci: 1) the agency of environments and technologies, 2) Indigenist conceptions of environments as plural, socio-cultural, and technologising, 3) environmentality as a governing rationality for enabling and constraining the activities of both human and non-human actors.
