This intervention argues for a German carceral geography that takes the framework of abolition seriously to develop a deeper understanding and critique of the exercise of power in institutional spaces. My claim is that we need to adapt abolition as a theoretical perspective and form of knowledge that allows us to expand the analysis of carceral practices and rationalities beyond imprisonment to include other institutional spaces of racialising, classing and disabling marginalisation.

This paper investigates the potential of comics in more-than-human geographies, arguing that graphic narratives emerge as productive tools to reveal
the in_betweenof humans and nonhumans. It further describes an exemplary approach to a collaborative comic and how visceral or nonverbal aspects in human-animal relations can be expressed and experienced, using the empirical study of returning wolves to Switzerland.

Population geography presents a strong conceptual orientation on demography, a discipline which relies mainly on quantitative studies. Many of the concepts used in this field seem to have only very limited value for understanding ongoing processes of societal changes. Under the umbrella of
family studiesconceptual and methodical approaches are to be found that help reconsider established assumptions related to the term
population, such as the notion of
family.

My ethnographic work in a technological pilot project in southern Tanzania provides insights into the test of an AI system to foster agriculture based on digital information in order to boost the development of rural areas. The experimental combination of a development project and the testing of a digital technology perpetuates the metaphor of Tilley's "Africa as a living laboratory", especially in the postcolonial context, and calls for a critical approach to these ventures.

We follow the refuge crop policy adopted worldwide to delay the evolution of pest resistance in insects to genetically engineered cotton. We aim to deconstruct the prevalent narrative of accusing farmers for not complying with insect resistance management strategies as we adopt the perspectives of subaltern actors involved in the refuge policy assemblage. Methodologically, we applied a literature review, document analysis and descriptive and interpretative statistics, and cluster analysis.

Qualitative research in geography and visual geographies have an ambivalent relationship with maps. Reasons for this are manifold. Based on current discussions in geography and beyond, this article explores and systematizes practices of critical mapping in order to explore new connections between visual approaches of qualitative geographies and maps.

The demographic dividend (DD) is one of the most important concepts within development cooperation. It was high time that the concept of the DD was put under scrutiny. Our findings reveal that simplistic demographic explanations for economic growth are appealing to political leaders and decision makers. We argue that the promotion of the DD to decision makers works as a low-level vehicle to achieve support for broader sets of multi-sectoral policies, which we call a
positive demographization.

In diesem Editorial begründen wir die intellektuelle Agenda, die dem Themenheft «German Theory» zugrunde liegt. Um diese mit anglophonen, aber auch anderen (frankophonen, lusophonen) Theoriediskussionen ins Gespräch zu bringen, möchten wir aus der deutschsprachigen Geistesgeschichte entstandene Denkstile bewusster, autonomer, aber auch dialogischer in den Blick nehmen, in internationale Theoriedebatten einbringen, und so für eine Pluralität von Denkstilen werben.

In Friulanischen Gebirgsdörfern, die durch starke Abwanderung (teilweise) wüst gefallen waren (Geisterdörfer), führt pionierhafte Zuwanderung von Landwirten, Remigranten, Künstlern, Selbständigen etc. zu Revitalisierung und Erhalt der alpinen Kulturlandschaft und zu innovativen Strukturen wie
New Farming. Besonders multilokal lebende Personen sind ausschlaggebend für die aktuelle Aufwertung: Hier für das Aupatal nachgewiesen, ist dies in den meisten alpinen Peripherräumen bereits beobachtbar.

This paper analyses two master plans of the canton Ticino from a philosophical point of view – the first one from 1990, Keynesian, and the second one from 2009, neoliberal. This type of analysis, by showing the political and moral concepts and criteria underlying a master plan, favours their political discussion and thus, ultimately, the implementation of a more inclusive planning process.

Short summary
The essay combines the concept of social cohesion with Rudolf Stichweh’s system-theoretical concept of world society. These two approaches are combined hereafter with questions of spatial differentiation. The aim is to embed empirical micro-studies in macro-theoretical terms and to make them useful for empirical research in social geography and spatial science. The construct of “cohesive region” demonstrates this by using the example of urban neighbourhoods.

Migrant domestic workers develop psychosocial well-being, based on their subjective embodied positioning, which can analytically be grasped through the concept of ontological (in)security. The women perceive and produce ontological (in)security through the spatial dimensions of visibility and belonging. Experiencing visibility and belonging benefits their sense of security and well-being. The results show the relevance of implementing regulations for more possible whereabouts of the women.

The article analyses the role of detention centres within refugee camps. Why is it important for the functioning of the refugee camp? How is the detention centre linked to other elements within and outside of the camp through certain practices? The former refugee camp of Moria serves as an example. It turns out that mostly asylum seekers with low recognition rates are detained in order to prevent the provision of information and help from outside in order to make a negative decision more likely.

In this editorial, we introduce the special section on the politics of memory of
Kiel 1969, the famous German geographers' conference, in which, as the myth narrates, a revolution took place within the discipline of German-language geography. We introduce the three individual statements by Verne, Strohmayer and Weichhart, who all recount their entanglements with the myth of
Kiel 1969, and place them in a wider context of the history of geography.

The paper discusses how virtual reality (VR) could make a difference to geographic education. A key argument is that virtual immersive environments were acquired affectively and emotionally by users. This should be considered for the processes of consuming, producing, and mediating geographic knowledge via and with VR. To discuss this a teaching and research project is presented in which students produced VR field trips based on empiric research in the cities of Vienna and Berlin.

Based on a critique of statistical and cartographic analyses of migration patterns of young adults in rural areas of Central Germany, we conclude that there is an emergence of cultures of (out-)migration in some rural regions and discuss possible approaches from psychoanalytically informed migration research and complex systems theory that may help us to understand why, in these regions, adolescents often consider leaving the most viable option.

This special issue shows that environmental justice perspectives are useful for analysing current socio-ecological conflicts. It aims at exploring climate and marine narratives, environmental knowledge claims, multiple ontologies, climate change adaptation, and the spatial and temporal shaping of socio-ecological struggles for climate and marine justice in more detail. Furthermore, it takes up current strands of climate and marine justice scholarship and explores avenues for further research.

By means of hermeneutic source criticism, my paper investigates how the events of “Kiel 1969” gave rise to a myth. It concludes that the congress’s participants experienced “Kiel 1969” as the site of an enormously dense social interaction within their science. Most importantly, participants’ suggestive oral reports in the aftermath of the congress turned it into the “myth of Kiel”, which became an essential driving force of German-speaking geography’s modernization.

This article discusses the methodological and ethical challenges of researching prison letters through a narrative approach. After giving insight into the work of the OLGa Collective and its archive of letters, I problematise the environment of prison spaces that shape inmates' subjectivities and then develop a discussion of the narrative approach by exploring the author's role as booklet editor and researcher, spanning activism and academia and his quest of
speaking for others.

The field of population geography in the last few years has intensively focussed on populations that are on the move. While the topic of migration is of great interest and will also be in the future, researchers have also started to focus more on immobile populations. In this paper, literature on immobile populations has been collected and analysed. The paper concludes on what we already know about
immobilitiesfrom extant research and makes suggestions for future research.

Der Artikel diskutiert, warum Lohnarbeit in Europa quer durch die verschiedenen Länder als strukturell krisenhaft angesehen werden muss. Um diese Frage zu beantworten, werden nicht einzelne nationale Sozial- und Arbeitspolitiken diskutiert, sondern es wird das aktuelle europäische Produktionsregime insgesamt betrachtet. Im Zentrum der Analyse steht der Zusammenhang von Transnationalisierung von Produktion und vielfacher und dynamischer sozialräumlicher Fragmentierung der Arbeitsprozesse.

Digital technologies are changing the way farms look and operate. To understand the implications, we analysed functionalities of an Austrian start-up which lets customers take care of plots of acres virtually and from their homes. In this system, technology proposes decisions, and there is no classic farmer any more. Our example shows the manifold new potential that powerful and smart technologies can have for food production, but it also shows the threats to farmers.

Small and medium-sized cities in rural areas that are affected by emigration need support. These cities are often lacking the financial and human resources to address resulting problems such as vacant city centers. The study shows that the city competition "Ab in die Mitte! Die City-Offensive Sachsen" supports such cities through project fundings and promotes knowledge exchange between cities. The funding is small but helps to stimulate positive change.

Rural areas have received new attention. Regions previously characterized as shrinking are experiencing a highly selective influx of urban middle-class households and an increase in real estate prices. These developments raise the question of value increase and displacement. This article aims to systematize the state of the art in British rural gentrification studies and to explain possible connections for German research on rural gentrification and discusses starting points for future research.

Visions for the future drive current practices and shape daily lives. This is also true for different groups of actors involved in the Bagré Growth Pole Project in Burkina Faso, an initiative to promote agricultural development in one of the poorest countries in the world. Based on 9 months of ethnographic
fieldwork, I examine how ideas of the future are used to explain and legitimize how the project proceeds and how lingering conflicts remain unsolved as the future is prioritized.

This paper studies a student movement that opened up spaces for radical geography at the geography department of the University of Zurich in the early 1980s, where these students demanded a new curriculum. Building on archival material and narrative interviews, this paper documents the "thought style" of these student initiatives and illustrates the antagonistic political mood, in which these initiatives operated. This case thereby shows the precariousness of radical theory in geography.

To understand farmers and beekeepers' perceptions of future waterscapes in the Swiss Jura, we applied the novel technique of speculative photo-response fabulation. In the fields, farmers and beekeepers photographed landscapes depicting their relationships to water. Many imagined the probable futures of the picture-framed waterscapes to be like southern regions nowadays. In reaction to their degradation, participants envision plural desired pathways expressing engaged geographies of futures.

Mit dem Paper wurde die je größte Stadt je Bundesland dahingehend untersucht, wie sozio-ökonomische Lage, Migration, Zuspruch zur Demokratie und Altersstruktur mit dem Zweitstimmenanteil der AfD in Stadtteilen korreliert. Vier Aspekte sind zentral: Erstens, Städte sind hinsichtlich des Zuspruchs stark polarisiert; sie sind zweitens, bei weitem nicht nur progressive Orte; drittens, divergieren die Gründe der Polarisierung; und, viertens, ist keine klare Ost-West-Polarisierung auszumachen.

The conditions of social work in prisons are seldomly researched. In particular, we focus on its spatial conditions as it works with and for people who are confined, but it is also carried out under conditions of confinement. Based on insights from two prisons in Switzerland we analyse these conditions by focusing on spaces, bodies and emotions. The materiality of the prison translates into the prison logics and enforces them in complex ways on the bodies of prisoners as well as social workers.

Considering time in climate justice research and practice deepens understanding of climate injustices to vulnerable people and of timely adaptation and resilience strategies. This is what the paper exemplifies by drawing on empirical results of farming communities in India and fishing communities in Norway. It suggests that qualitative scenarios based on the different facets of time as perceived by local groups are a valuable complement to existing quantifications of climate change projections.

Geopolitical imaginaries and discourses are subject to long-term changes that can be analyzed with computer-based lexicometric tools. Tracing the appearence of keywords like

Cold Warthe manuscript draws on media discourses of the past 75 years to show which phases of emergence, disappearance, and reactualization they go through and how the long-lasting discursive
archives of geopoliticspowerfully weave themselves into current geopolitical representations.

We explore climate change adaptation planning from a justice perspective. We draw on the growing literature on the politics of adaptation and on justice theories and highlight the need for incorporating the distributive, procedural and recognition justice dimensions in adaptation planning. Adaptation to climate change is reframed as a set of temporal, spatial and socio-political choices that have significant justice implications.

Every crisis is a moment both of the intensification of borders and of their potential breaking down. Borders have acquired centrality in the imaginary of the management of the pandemic. They are a constitutive part of the pandemic condition, endowed with a new symbolic and cognitive force. The massive interventions by states to shore up the economy may simply be the prelude to a more virulent phase, where a crisis of legitimacy and a crisis of social reproduction are interwoven.

This paper examines the climate justice narratives that are gradually emerging in the cross-border territory of Chiapas–Guatemala, in an area of high socio-environmental conflict. The religious factor is the driving force behind many of these anti-capitalist struggles, especially from the perspective of liberation theology. The case study is a call for the inclusion of religion in climate and environmental justice theories, as a relevant factor in territories with a colonial past.

This paper looks at the possibilities and difficulties of producing short comic stories with interviewees in order to find out about the way in which they remember that past and anticipate the future. The study this paper is based on was conducted by three artists and one geographer with people who live close to a planned development corridor in Kenya. The results suggest that the presented method can offer unique insights by making abstract ideas of the future more concrete.

Cet article s'intéresse à la représentation de la Suisse à travers deux affiches. La première vise à attirer une clientèle touristique en 1942, la seconde à faire voter les électeurs pour le parti Vert'libéral en 2019. Nous décryptons les images représentées et montrons en quoi elles vont de pair avec certains messages. La Suisse est ici celle des familles urbaines et celle de la verdure. Ces deux thèmes sont clés dans la mobilisation d'un public touristique et d'un électorat.

When authorities act apparently to protect communities from risks, including those made worse by climate change, there can be other motives at work. Through research in Rio de Janeiro we analyse how a favela clearance policy was brought in after landslides in 2010 with only weak technical justification. Favela dwellers, activists and counter-experts formed a network to contest these moves, challenge the risk assessments undertaken and build a partially successful resistance to an unjust policy.

The spatial borders of territorial states are also the limits of the validity of the principle of abstract equality and its emancipatory potential. Against the backdrop of geographical theorizations of spatial forms, the paper discusses how this is reflected in the Marxist critique of merely abstract equality and the ways in which current theories of radical democracy find emancipatory potential in the demand for equality.

This article investigates how new digital technologies are established in agriculture. It draws upon empirical data from a qualitative case study with a Swiss based but internationally operating start-up that has recently obtained the first authorisation to spray crop protection products on vineyards with their home-made drone. The authors show that there has been a joint-effort between the private company and federal institutions to experiment, improve and regulate the functioning of the drone.

This intervention discusses the politics of place naming in the context of decolonising universities and academic knowledge. It is written as a comic that creates a visual as well as textual narrative by focussing on the figure of Carl Vogt, a 19th century racial theorist and politician whose name was used for a building constructed in 2015 at the University of Geneva. It is written as a personal letter to Carl Vogt.

Die Intervention befasst sich vor allem mit der Dynamik des Dialogs zwischen Carolin Schur und Peter Weichhart. Die leitende rage lautet, Wie kann wissenschaftlicher Dialog am besten gestaltet werden unter Bedingungen der tendenziell zunehmenden Wissenslücken der jeweiligen Dialogpartner*innen gegenüber anderen Standpunkten? Es wird argumentiert, dass diese Frage am besten geantwortet werden kann, wenn wir unser Verständnis für die subtile Auswirkungen der Positionalität verbessern.

Short summary
This paper aims to contribute to discussions on the development of language-based
schools of thoughtin geography and how these are mobilized and de- and recontextualized when they travel beyond their origins. Against this backdrop, we study why, how and with what consequences German geographical knowledge traveled to Argentina in the 1940s following the employment of the four German geography professors Wilhelm Rohmeder, Gustav Fochler-Hauke, Fritz Machatschek and Willi Czajka in Tucumán.
