SUMMARY:Doreen Massey: Selected Political Writings
DESCRIPTION:In collaboration with Lawrence Wishart Books\n\n\n\nDoreen Massey was one of the most influential human geographers of the post-war period. A key feminist and socialist thinker\, she brought geographical inequality to the fore of left politics. Through her activism\, she combined a focus on class with a prescient awareness of its intersections with gender\, race and sexuality.This book is a collection of Doreen Massey’s essential political writings\, from reflections on support groups during the 1984-5 Miners’ Strike to assessments of the Sandinistas’ spatial policies and ownership campaigns relating to Liverpool Football Club. It gives a vivid sense of Massey’s dynamic style as a left public intellectual whose work impacted major political initiatives\, and introduces her important ‘politics of place’ to a new generation of activists. \n\n\n\nDoreen Massey was a pioneering radical geographer\, theorist and activist\, whose work challenged how we understand space\, place and power. This collection of her writings brings together articles on social justice and previously un-digitised essays\, for a fresh insight into Massey’s political commitments. It aims to give geographers a better sense of her political commitments while introducing her theory of location to a new generation of social justice activists. \n\n\n\nSPEAKERS \n\n\n\nDavid Featherstone is Reader in Human Geography at the University of Glasgow.
