Pond biodiversity and habitat loss in the UK
Tập 35 Số 2 - Trang 206-216 - 2003
Ponds are common landscape features but have been poorly studied compared to
other freshwater habitats in the UK, despite their high frequency of occurrence.
In the last century, many ponds have been lost and those that remain face
increasing pressure due to agricultural land drainage, pollution and urban
development. However, ponds provide important habitats for diverse floral and
faunal communit...
Constructing a social geography of grandparenthood: a new focus for intergenerationality
Tập 42 Số 2 - Trang 190-197 - 2010
In this paper I suggest ways in which a geographical approach to grandparent
identities could successfully build upon social geography's understandings of
relational geographies of age. In intergenerational geographies, the
compartmentalised nature of age studies means that transitions in later stages
of the lifecourse, particularly in family life, remain substantially
under‐researched. The paper ...
Mental health, ethnography and the body
Tập 30 Số 1 - Trang 28-37 - 1998
Summary Covert ethnographic research materials are used to highlight different
individuals’ embodied configurations of time and space (in this case people with
mental health problems). Research relationships that revolve around body
presentation and body movement are then examined. The problematic associations
between covert ethnography and feminist methodologies are also addressed.
Gathering in Thoreau's backyard: nontimber forest product harvesting as practice
Tập 40 Số 2 - Trang 265-277 - 2008
Understanding of the gathering of nontimber forest products (NTFPs) in woodlands
has focused heavily on politics surrounding public lands and harvester
communities. Yet forest gathering may be far more universal. This paper reports
the results of a survey of residents in New England, querying whether people
gather wild things and for what purposes. The results suggest that gathering in
New England...
Anthropogenic soils in the Central Amazon: from categories to a continuum
Tập 43 Số 3 - Trang 264-273 - 2011
Fashioning furniture: restructuring the furniture commodity chain
Tập 35 Số 4 - Trang 427-437 - 2003
The paper explores intersections between the fashion and furniture industries as
manifest across magazine, retail and manufacturing spaces. We argue that the
temporality and spatiality of furniture have begun to shift. As a result,
furniture retailers and manufacturers in Canada and the UK have been required to
restructure their methods of operating.
The right to say: the development of youth councils/forums within the UK
Tập 30 Số 1 - Trang 66-78 - 1998
Summary Article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child
makes explicit reference to children's right to say what they think about
matters relating to the quality of their lives, and to have those opinions taken
into account in accordance with their levels of competence and maturity. Despite
the commitment of the UK Government to this and other similar initiatives
designed to...
Austerity, welfare reform and the E nglish health divide
Tập 47 Số 3 - Trang 341-343 - 2015
In this commentary we argue that spatial inequalities in health will increase in
England as a result of the entwined policies of austerity and welfare reform. We
describe the health divide and outline the actual and potential effects of
austerity and welfare reform on it by drawing on current data and previous
international research. Drawing on our involvement in the 2014 Due North:
Independent In...
Assessing the impact of China's timber industry on Congo Basin land use change
Tập 51 Số 2 - Trang 340-349 - 2019
Through the rise of global commodity chains, consumer demand in China and the
USA has given rise to the extraction of natural resources in the Congo Basin.
The Chinese market for high‐valued animal products such as elephant ivory and
pangolin scales has encouraged poaching, exploitation and trafficking of these
goods in Africa. Chinese demand for other African commodities, however, remains
less we...
