Table of ContentsReviewsSquire and Jackman have produced the fresh take on political geography for which undergraduates have been waiting. Political geography is more than ever in the news, and students looking for the conceptual tools to make sense of it need look no further: from decolonisation movements, to our relationships to technology and the digital, to the contestation of popular culture, this book has it all. And crucially, it has hope – something that can be in short supply these days. -- Jason Dittmer This impressive textbook makes important and complex ideas understandable and interesting [to students]. It strikes the delicate balance between political urgency and pastoral sensitivity, presenting important topics of violence and inequality alongside hopeful resources for peaceful and sustainable futures. -- Nick Megoran Squire and Jackman have produced the fresh take on political geography for which undergraduates have been waiting.

Her research draws on feminist geopolitics to explore questions relating to the sea, territory, volume, and most recently earth futures and Anthropocene geographies. Rachael has published in a range of journals in addition to her monograph Undersea Geopolitics: Sealab, Science, and the Cold War. Her most recent work explores the political, cultural, and social geographies of public aquariums in a time of environmental crisis. Dr Anna Jackman is a Lecturer in Human Geography at the University of Reading. Anna is a feminist political geographer interested in technological visibilities, volumes, relations and futures. Her research approaches these issues through the lens of the drone, exploring the ‘unmanning’ of everyday, urban and military life in the drone age. Anna’s Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC)-funded research project ‘Diversifying Drone Stories’ engaged with a range of stakeholders (including emergency services, lawyers, industry, local authorities, pilots, and members of the public) to explore the diverse use, perception, and impact of drones in changing UK airspace.
