Abstract
In this Editorial, we discuss WalkingLab’s approach to critical walking methodologies grounded in queer-feminist, anti-racist praxis, and argue for the need to critically account for understandings of place in times of ongoing crises. We then introduce the articles featured in this special issue. Authored by international scholars, each article in the special issue engages critically with walking methodologies and the concept place from oblique angles.
Highlights
Walking has been socially, ethically, and politically imbricated in the world’s response to ongoing global crises including the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, anti-Black racism, and Indigenous genocide
This special issue on critical walking methodologies pays careful attention to the specificities of place and the ways that place is imbricated in ongoing global crises
For WalkingLab, critical walking methodologies insist that intersectionality, the place where research takes place, and how one moves through space be critically complicated and accounted for (Springgay & Truman, 2018)
