Our focus of attention is on the antagonisms and solidarities produced across different social positions within current mobilizations around housing.

Using the example of Slovakia, I argue that since their accession to Western institutions, these states have continuously sought to carve out a place for themselves on the mental map of European and North American policymakers. Major security-policy conferen…

Chapter 11 Framing Transdisciplinary Research as an Assemblage
In this case study of a transdisciplinary collaboration between a mental health nurse and a human geographer, we reflect on a continuing research venture to develop walking therapy as an accepted intervention in the mental health system. We draw on Gilles Delueuze and Félix Guattari’s assemblage theory to frame the research practice, or journey, as something which is boundless, fluid, and co…

Chapter 10: The social sources of unelected power: how central banks became e…
The 'unconventional' monetary policies of the past decade have re-opened the debate about central banks' accountability and the nature and sources of their legitimacy. Unprecedented quantitative easing and asset purchasing programmes have demonstrated that central banks possess considerable 'infrastructural power' to influence the global economy, far beyond the narrow mission of price stability…
