Identities and Subjectivities: Geographies of Children and Young People, cartea 4
Editat de Nancy Worth, Claire Dwyer Tracey Skeltonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 iul 2016
În cadrul disciplinei emergente a geografiei umane, tema identității de vârstă și a subiectivității ocupă un loc central, oferind instrumente critice pentru înțelegerea modului în care tinerii navighează în spații socio-politice complexe. Volumul Identities and Subjectivities, editat de Nancy Worth, Claire Dwyer și Tracey Skelton, reprezintă a patra contribuție majoră din seria Geographies of Children and Young People. Ne-a atras atenția în mod deosebit modul în care structura cărții reușește să cartografieze intersecția dintre identitatea religioasă, etnică și de gen în contexte geografice extrem de variate.
Remarcăm o progresie riguroasă a conținutului, de la fundamentele teoretice ale subiectivității neoliberale la analize empirice profunde, precum experiențele copiilor străzii din Indonezia sau procesele de identificare ale tinerilor din diaspora irlandeză. Această ediție princeps din 2017 consolidează un corpus de lucrări academice care transformă geografia copiilor dintr-o nișă într-un pilon al geografiei umane contemporane. Putem afirma că lucrarea se distinge prin capacitatea de a aduce în prim-plan spații adesea marginalizate, precum toaletele publice sau stațiile de autobuz, reinterpretate ca locuri esențiale de negociere a sinelui.
Acoperă aceeași arie tematică ca Establishing Geographies of Children and Young People de Tracey Skelton, dar cu o abordare mult mai aplicată pe diversitatea subiectivităților individuale și pe mecanismele de excluziune subculturală. În timp ce alte volume din serie se concentrează pe joacă sau sănătate, Identities and Subjectivities aprofundează dimensiunea politică și socială a devenirii tinerilor subiecți. Această orientare reflectă expertiza editorului Nancy Worth, care în lucrarea sa anterioară, Researching the Lifecourse, a explorat metode inovatoare de a conecta teoria parcursului vieții cu studiile de caz concrete din Europa și America de Nord.

Descriere scurtă
Geographies of children and young people is a rapidly emerging sub-discipline within human geography. There is now a critical mass of established academic work, key names within academia, growing numbers of graduate students and expanding numbers of university level taught courses. There are also professional training programmes at national scales and in international contexts that work specifically with children and young people. In addition to a productive journal of Children’s Geographies, there’s a range of monographs, textbooks and edited collections focusing on children and young people published by all the major academic presses then there is a substantive body of work on younger people within human geography and active authors and researchers working within international contexts to warrant a specific Major Reference Work on children’s and young people’s geographies.
The volumes and sections are structured by themes, which then reflect the broader geographical locations of the research.

Notă biografică
Dr Nancy Worth is affiliated with the Department of Geography at York University in Toronto, Canada. Her work has focused on young people’s transitions to adulthood, gendered precarious work and young people’s co-residence with parents.

Dr. Claire Dwyer has been based at the department of geography, University College London, since 1995. She is a reader in social and cultural geography and Co-Director of the Migration Research Unit at UCL. She teaches social and cultural geography at all levels and is the course director of the Msc Global Migration.
Claire’s main research interests are in the geographies of faith, migration and multiculturalism. She is currently leading an AHRC-funded research project Making Suburban Faith, which runs from 2015-2019, and explores the changing geographies of suburban faith in West London. This continues workundertaken in Vancouver (funded by Metropolis Canada and conducted with Professor David Ley and Dr Justin Tse) exploring the role of faith and migration in shaping Vancouver’s suburban landscapes. Research from these projects has been published in the Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Social and Cultural Geography, Journal of Material Religion, Cultural Geography and Built Environment. Claire has longstanding interests in transnationalism and migration and has published widely on the role of commodity culture in shaping transnational spaces including her co-edited book Transnational Spaces (Routledge, 2004, co-edited with Peter Jackson and Phillip Crang). Her research interests in geographies of race and racism and the contemporary geographies of multiculturalism has included research on faith schools, community cohesion policies and the educational attainment of ethnic minority pupils funded most recently by a large grant from the Leverhulme Trust (2003-2007) working in collaboration with colleagues at the Centre for Ethnicity and Citizenship at the University of Bristol. This work has been published in the Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Sociology and Sociological Review. She is the co-editor, with Caroline Bressey of New Geographies of Race and Racism (2008, Ashgate).
Claire has longstanding research interests in the geographies of young people and particularly the intersections of gender, generation, faith and ethnicity. Her PhD research, completed in 1997, focused on the identity formations of young Muslim women with pioneering research on the politics of veiling. This research was published in journals such as Gender, Place and Culture, Women’s Studies International Forum, Environment and Planning A and the co-authored volume Geographies of New Femininities (1999,New York Longman). Subsequent research focused on the contested identities of young Muslim men in Britain inthe context of changing politics of terrorism and security, published in Gender, Place and Culture and Sociological Review. She is also interested in qualitative methods and co-edited Qualitative Methodologies for Geographies: Issues and Debates (2001, Arnold) and reports on methods for Progress in Human Geography (2007, 2008, 2009).
Claire served on the committee of the Women and Geography Study Group (now Gender and Feminist Geography Research Group) of the Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers) from 1997-2011, and the Commission on Gender for the International Geographical Union from 2009-2016. She was a member of the collective which co-wrote Feminist Geographies (1997, Longman).
Tracey Skelton is Associate Professor of Human Geography in the Department of Geography at the National University of Singapore. She was previously Professor of Critical Geographies at the University of Loughborough in the UK. The essential elements of her research career focus on people who are socially, politically, and intellectually excluded. Her early work focused on the Caribbean and issues of gender and racial inequality, feminist geographies, and methodological analysis. She has contributed to culture and development debates, particularly through her longitudinal research on the island of Montserrat. Recently, A/P Skelton returned to this field of scholarship through research with volunteers and host organizations in Cambodia as part of a major comparative and collaborative project on development partnerships. She was the principal investigator of a major comparative urbanism research project on the livability, sustainability, and diversity of four Asian cities: Busan in South Korea, Hyderabad in India, Kunming in China, and Singapore.
A/P Skelton is a recognized international leader in the subdiscipline of children’s and young people’s geographies. In particular, her work has served to challenge the invisibility and marginalization of young people from geographic academic research at the same time as it has demonstrated the rich and varied ways in which young people live their lives both spatially and temporally alongside, but differently from, adults. Her research work has been funded by key research institutions such as the Economic and Social Research Council and the Arts and Humanities Research Council of the UK; the Faculty of Arts and Social Science Academic Research Fund and the Global Asia Institute, both of the National University of Singapore; the Australian Research Council; and the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
A/P Skelton was a founding editorial board member of the international journal Children’s Geographies and has been the Viewpoints Editor since 2005 and became the Commissioning Editor for Asia in 2010. She is on the editorial boards of the following journals: Geoforum, the Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, Geography Compass, and ACME: International Journal of Critical Geographies (open access). She has coauthored 2 books, edited 3 collections, guest-edited 2 special journal issues, and published more than 70 journal articles and chapters. She is a passionate teacher and graduate supervisor. She is committed to the politics of research dissemination in accessible formats, in particular to enable the participants in her research projects to understand and recognize their coproduction of knowledge whether through specialized small-scale workshops, translation of reports into local languages, or production of audiovisual materials.
