We then discuss shifts in sensibilities around marine-space, especially with concern to notions of fishing communities and their inclusion in planning and management processes. Through this, we underscore a problematic pervasive in conceptual models used to account for relations between humans and marine-spaces and how this contributes to failures to fulfill regulatory responsibilities to fishing communities. We then draw on new materialist insights into assemblages and affect and emotion to offer alternative ways to think about, research, approach, and manage marine-spaces through more nuanced and informed considerations of their broad, complex, and ever-present human and socio-cultural components.

Working through feminist and post-structural understandings of law and different body -space relations of family treatment and recovery, in this paper we empirically investigate the nature and workings of therapeutic jurisprudence in drug treatment and child welfare management programs based in San Diego, California, and involved in the family treatment drug court (FTDC) system. What is at the forefront in this paper are different critical geographical conceptualizations of the double articulating productive and inhibiting forces inherent to the workings of FTDCs. Through the presentation of two family narratives of different familial, corporeal, spatial, and institutional encounters, movements, and transformations, we argue for alternative, attentive, and empowering understandings of family recovery.

From a critical perspective, the demarcation of the fi eld is fuzzy and unstable. Politics of Fieldwork The questions and issues arising out of the uneven relations of power existing between researchers and research subjects in the fi eld. Positionality The recognition that a researcher always operates and produces knowledge in relation to multiple relations of difference, such as gender, ethnicity, class, age, and sexuality. Refl exivity The process of critically refl ecting about oneself as a researcher. Situated Knowledge The knowledge marked by the context in which it is produced and the partiality of the knowledge producer.

What started out as film geography in the mid 1990s has evolved into geographies of journalism, marketing, newspapers, photography, video, internet, gaming, geovisualization, music, and television. ...
