situating and pluralizing feminist geographies: preserving legacies for future generations



This aim of this session is to highlight, critically discuss and preserve the legacies of second-wave feminist geographers from non-Anglophone countries and those working on the margins of the discipline. The history of feminist geography is often told through an Anglophone lens, with insufficient attention to differences between feminist geographers across the globe (Blidon & Zaragocin, 2019). Pluralizing the history of feminist geography not only brings into view diverse situated national contexts and geographical traditions, but also marginalized forms of knowledge, including indigenous, Black and queer geographies (McKittrick, 2011; Mollett & Faria, 2018; Oswin, 2020). Beyond being 'case studies', different social, political and cultural contexts have produced different geographical traditions, theories and concepts (Ferretti, 2020; Garcia Ramon et al., 2006). Unfortunately, much of this history risks being lost to time. As many of these scholars were not yet publishing internationally, their work lies untouched in university libraries, or vulnerable in private collections. As the 1960s generation is ageing, more and more oral histories fade. Engaging with and caring for the diverse histories and plurality within feminist geographical knowledge production is crucial to a more inclusive retelling of (feminist) geographical scholarship and to preserve this knowledge for future generations.



The session welcomes contributions which discuss

  1.  History and development of feminist geographies from non-Anglophone and marginalized contexts, their theoretical and conceptual approaches, biographies and publishing practices
  2.  methodological approaches, including archival methods and digitalization practices
  3.  the integration of diverse histories of feminist geography into teaching and higher education curricula
