Abstract in another language
Affective dynamics shape spatial practices and social relations. Various strands in human geography have contributed to the study of affect, emphasizing its irreducibility to discourse and conscious understanding. This entry provides a comprehensive review of the role of affect in geographical research. It addresses the variety of expressions of affect that geographers have studied in different spatial contexts, discusses historical shifts in geographic research on affect, and traces the theoretical references, methodological directions, key concepts, and empirical fields of affective geographies. Furthermore, the entry points to the critical implications of affective geographies as well as to the promises and tensions that emanate from geographical research with and on affects.
