Politics of Space and Place

This theme brings together a variety of academic researchers and PhD candidates from different disciplines and fields at Wageningen University who are engaged in the study of politics, governance and the production of space and place.
We study the politics, governance and planning of space and place (including but not limited to planning and design approaches) from post-stuctualist and relational perspectives, like ANT. This implies places are seen as the outcome of past actions, communications and decisions setting the possibilities and limits for new ones.
This theme includes issues on the intersection of governance, geography and sociology, including: democracy of planning and design, citizenship and participation, conflicts over and in places, natural resource management, food provisioning, land tenure, object-, subject- and identity formation.
