Description:
There is a growing body of literature that interrogates the relationship between international and individual scales, seeking to ground geopolitics into practice, place, and body (Dixon 2015; Fregonese 2017; Hyndman 2004, 2019; Laketa 2021). Inspired by this scholarship, this session begins from the interplay of the global and the intimate (Barabantseva et al 2021; Pain and Staeheli 2014; Pratt and Rossner 2012; Mountz and Hyndman 2006). Here, we seek to contribute to the critical exploration of the different places, spaces, and ways in which (geo)politics, inequalities, bodies, and (urban) space interconnect and interact.
