Reader in Human Geography


Summary

Greatly influenced by anarchist praxis Richard’s main research agenda explores a range of ethical and economic landscapes rooted in the intersectional contexts of social justice and total liberation movements.

About

My principal areas of teaching, learning and research are rooted within three areas of human geography: namely anarchist geographies, critical animal geographies and the sociology of space and place. ANARCHIST GEOGRAPHIES Over the last 20 years I have contributed to an important body of empirical research that explores the geographies of household work practices in the UK. Drawing on this research to explore the complex geographies of community self-help, my key contribution to anarchist geographies has been to demonstrate how non-capitalist and ‘anarchist' forms of organisation are deeply woven into the fabric of everyday life in a 'capitalist society. Understanding anarchist forms of organisation to be rooted in the principles of mutual aid, reciprocity, co-operation, collaboration and inclusion, I place my research here firmly within a broader, emancipatory, anarchist geography of freedom. In the context of an enduring crisis of capitalism emphasising the pluralistic and prevalent nature of forms of self-help and informal support that lie beyond the market and the state is particularly important and timely. In highlighting the pervasive nature of 'non-capitalist' work practices in the advanced economics of the western world, my work reveals a set of distinctive and innovative alternatives to capitalism both in the here and now, and opens up new "post-capitalist" visions of work and organisation in the future. By inviting new ways of imagining and envisioning socially just ways of economic organisation the research has great relevance across a wide range of inter-disciplinary academic, activist and broader public communities. CRITICAL ANIMAL GEOGRAPHIES Critical Animal Geographies provides new geographical perspectives on critical animal studies, exploring the spatial, political, and ethical dimensions of animals’ lived experience and human–animal encounters. It works toward a more radical politics and theory directed at the shifting boundary between human and animal. My main contribution to the field of critical animal studies broadly, and critical animal geographies in particular, has been to argue how both can engage with anarchist praxis of non-violence to better (a) problematise human power and human species identity and (b) confront, challenge and subvert the often exploitative and violent interlocking systems that underpin the treatment of both humans and other animals in society. THE SOCIOLOGY OF SPACE AND PLACE Drawing on a range of mixed methods, including an innovative use of 'mental mapping', my research has focused on the uneven experiences and perceptions on young people from deprived urban neighbourhoods (in Hull, Walsall and Wolverhampton) and their attitudes toward further education, training and work opportunities. At a time of high levels of youth unemployment, this is a high visibility area which has relevance for researchers, policymakers and practitioners concerned with regeneration, economic development, labour market, skills, and education. In calling for broader recognition of 'the role of geography' in inter-disciplinary analysis, the research continues to inform practical policy interventions that may help widen social and spatial horizons of young people more effectively to enable them to take in a broader range of employment and training opportunities beyond their immediate locality.

Research

Anarchism and Anarchist Geographies
Over the last 15 years I have contributed to an important body of empirical research that explores the anarchist economies of household work practices in the UK. Drawing on this research to explore the complex geographies of community self-help, my key contribution to anarchist geographies has been to demonstrate how non-capitalist and ‘anarchist' forms of organisation are deeply woven into the fabric of everyday life in a 'capitalist society. Understanding anarchist forms of organisation to be rooted in the principles of mutual aid, reciprocity, co-operation, collaboration and inclusion, I place my research here firmly within a broader, emancipatory, anarchist geography of freedom.My work on anarchism and anarchist geographies has been published in a range of international interdisciplinary journals (including 'AREA', 'Antipode' and 'Social Economy'), and other publications, including 'The Handbook of Neoliberalism' (Routledge, 2016) and 'The Accumulation of Freedom' (AK Press, 2012)). I recently co-edited a trilogy of volumes on anarchist geography, titled: 'The Radicalization of Pedagogy', 'Theories of Resistance', and 'The Practice of Freedom' (Rowman & Littlefield, 2016).

Critical Animal Geographies
Critical Animal Geographies provides new geographical perspectives on critical animal studies, exploring the spatial, political, and ethical dimensions of animals’ lived experience and human–animal encounters. It works toward a more radical politics and theory directed at the shifting boundary between human and animal. My contribution to the field of critical animal studies broadly, and critical animal geographies in particular, has been to argue how both can engage with anarchist praxis of non-violence to better (a) problematise human power and human species identity and (b) confront, challenge and subvert the often exploitative and violent interlocking systems that underpin the treatment of both humans and other animals in society.My research on critical animal geographies has been published in a number of books, including 'Animal Oppression and Capitalism' (Praeger Press, 2017); 'Critical Animal Studies' (Lanham, 2017); 'Critical Animal Geographies' (Routledge, 2015),' Anarchism and Animal Liberation' (McFarland Press, 2015); and 'A Critical Animal Studies Reader: An Introduction to an Intersectional Social Justice Approach to Animal Liberation' (Peter Lang, 2014).

The Sociology of Space and Place
Drawing on a range of mixed methods, including an innovative use of 'mental mapping', I have continued to engage with the literature around the sociology of place and space by emphasising how social networks and attachment to place shape can influence spatial horizons and affect aspirations. In calling for broader recognition of 'the role of geography' in inter-disciplinary analysis, my research continues to inform practical policy interventions that may help widen social and spatial horizons of young people more effectively to enable them to take in a broader range of employment and training opportunities beyond their immediate locality.
Funded by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, my research here has been published in international journals (including 'Urban Studies', and 'Work, Employment and Society'); and in the Palgrave publication 'Innovations in Youth Research' (2011)
