Call for Papers: Geography? Destiny?
‘Locality’ as a concept can be associated with many things such as a place, a feeling, a community or a collective experience. In some contexts, it evokes ideas about borders, boundaries and constraints or suggests a nostalgic sense of stability and fixity. However, instead of reflecting ideas about confinement, as Doreen Massey describes, localities are about interactions which are much likely constructed by differences and conflicts. They are dynamic meeting points which include multiple internal conflicts that are historically constituted (Massey, 2013; Keyder, 1999: Mills, 2018) and cannot be thought apart from the movements that shape the globalized world. The movements of people, goods, labor, capital, stories and experiences (Appadurai, 1996) are fundamental to understanding the dynamic formations of localities that can only be described as ever changing. To put it differently, although the term ‘locality’ has often been bound up within the duality of the local and the global within the audio-visual content creation, production and consumption, influences, flows, interactions and intersections have in fact been intrinsic to the term.
One of the principal topics of debate in this era of poly-crises, which will undoubtedly inform numerous social science studies for years to come, is the concept of resilience. This term is sometimes also referred to as resilience. Resilience is classified, discussed and analyzed in terms of physical, economic, financial, sectoral, institutional, psychological, social, urban, regional and ecological aspects through multidisciplinary and multidimensional approaches.
The Special Issue on Resilience in the Age of Poly-Crises is dedicated to the examination of resilience policies and measures that can be employed to address economic, political, ecological and social vulnerabilities at local, regional, national and global levels.
