Troubling places: Walking the “troubling remnants” of post‐conflict space

Abstract: This paper explores the productive potential of walking methods in post-conflict space, with particular emphasis on Northern Ireland. We argue that walking methods are especially well suited to studying post-conflict spatial arrangements, yet remain underutilised for a variety of reasons. Specifically, we argue that walking methods can "trouble" dominant productions of post-conflict space, revealing its storied depth, multi-temporality, and the alternative narratives of the past that frequently remain hidden i… Show more

“…As an embodied way of seeing the world, it better places us to understand how our encounters with place shape our identities and interactions with others (Coyles, 2017; Vergunst and Ingold, 2008). In the context of NI, walking methods have been employed to grasp how segregated space is reinforced and navigated (Hocking et al, 2018) and more recently to co-produce narratives of the past that have often been silenced (Robinson and McClelland, 2020). We suggest that these methodologies can be understood as ‘connecting’ in that they bring together the participants across both the landscapes in which they engage and with each other on multiple levels.…”

“…There is a burgeoning literature around ‘connecting methodologies’ that bring people together in novel ways in divided societies (Coyles, 2017; Robinson and McClelland, 2020). In this paper we think about the ways in which such methodologies, in the form of walking, photographing and mapping, can cut across community hostilities and allow individuals and groups to ‘sensemake’ their connections to contested environments.…”

“…While ‘place matters’ has become almost axiomatic for human geographers in past decades, few have actively operationalised place in their methodological praxis (Anderson et al, 2010). In this study, I operationalised place through walking research, a family of methods relying on movement-based ‘in situ’ research (Evans and Jones, 2011; Robinson and McClelland, 2020). These methods can be especially useful in capturing place-based ‘perceptual memories’ (Degen and Rose, 2012: 3284), yielding compelling narrations of places rooted in exposure to surrounding sensory environment (Holton and Riley, 2014), and excavating layers of historical memory present in place (Anderson, 2004).…”

“…Beginning with Basset's (2004) account of using psychogeography in student fieldwork, there have been a series of engagements by geographers and in geographical journals (Arnold, 2019;Bennett, 2011;Bonnett, 2009Bonnett, , 2017Middleton, 2011;Overend et al, 2020;Phillips, 2018;Pierce and Lawhon, 2015;Pinder, 2005Pinder, , 2018Pinder, , 2020Pyyry, 2019;Robinson and McClelland, 2020;Smith, 2010;Sidaway, 2009;Souzis, 2015). However, several relegate psychogeography to a single reference or a footnote.…”
