Cultural geographies III: What if…? Imagination, worldly relations and doing research otherwise

In this final cultural geographies report, I want to reflect on the prevalence of calls from within Geography to ‘imagine’ or to ‘reimagine’ everything from the discipline and its research practices to worldly futures. Considering recent writings on world-making and the need to imagine Geography and Geographical research otherwise, I highlight critical geographies of the imagination and reflect on the need to attend to the labours of doing this imagination work, its promises and ambiguities.

Abstract

In this final cultural geographies report, I want to reflect on the prevalence of calls from within Geography to ‘imagine’ or to ‘reimagine’ everything from the discipline and its research practices to worldly futures. Considering recent writings on world-making and the need to imagine Geography and Geographical research otherwise, I highlight critical geographies of the imagination and reflect on the need to attend to the labours of doing this imagination work, its promises and ambiguities.
