Introduction to the Special Issue: Subterranean Geopolitics

Abstract: Recent scholarship in political geography and allied disciplines such as Anthropology and Architecture has used registers such as the elemental and volumetric to explore the calculative, material, technical, and atmospheric interventions in, on, through and beneath the earth's surface. In this special issue, our contributors engage in a 'subterranean turn', as they drill down, dive into, travel through and speculate with underground and underwater domains. Although varied in their geographical environments and… Show more

“…Feminist scholars have criticised traditional ecomodernist solutions that have simultaneously facilitated a "downgrading of ethical concerns," such as justice, economic equity or health (MacGregor, 2009, p.128). Feminist (and postcolonial) perspectives should be laid out as a counterpoint to technological understandings of the earth (Jackman et al, 2020) and remain at the center when new terrains are explored (Jackman et al, 2020;Squire & Dodds, 2020). Feminist discussions on environment highlight the significance of care and ethics within climate change, especially in relation to future generations and global inequalities (see, e.g.…”

“…While these diverse elemental contexts are subject to territorialization processes, they do not acquiesce willingly, being constituted of dimensions, textures and intensities that cannot be wholly comprehended or controlled by a central authority. Scholarship on the vertical, and increasingly, volumetric dimensions of territory has stretched analysis to the heights and depths of territorial space, from the atmosphere to the subterranean (Braun, 2000; Elden, 2013b; Squire and Dodds, 2019; Williams, 2013). As Graham (2016: 3) contends, theorization of territory has been undermined by ‘“flat” geographic thinking’, neglecting, and more seriously, obscuring the vertical dimension of power through which sovereignty is increasingly exercised, ‘above, below and around borders’ (see also Billé, 2019).…”

“…Descending underground, what has been called the ‘geological turn’ (Dalby, 2013: 57) and ‘subterranean turn’ (Squire and Dodds, 2019) in political theory is also challenging orthodox thinking on territory. As Clark and Yusoff (2017: 15) propose, this has occasioned the ‘politicization of the geologic’ and a ‘geologization of the political’, giving rise to the new field of ‘political geology’ (Bobbette and Donovan, 2019).…”
