Combining the literature on 'city systems' and its intermediary spatial categories with the discourse on 'socio-technical' hybrids, this article examines whether the early rural urban condition in Belgium was the planned spatial outcome of infrastructure policy.
Although its status as a semi-autonomous subfield is debatable, literary geography is now a well-accepted and indeed 'normalized' means of teasing out the multiple intersections between people and place, identity and territory, and spatial practice and cultural discourse.
This point alone demonstrates the value of examining circumstantial meanings across a range of lexicogrammatical realisations if we want to be able to see the extent of spatial meaning in history discourse, and understand how the field of history is realised in text.
These findings are likely to be due to speakers' lexical choices and the spatial nature of the discourse and are informative for clinical practice.
The last section of this paper examines how some women's collectives are challenging this and the types of discourse and the spatial claims they stake, for both a city that "belongs to them" and everyday citizenship for all banlieusard.e.s.s
Semantic differences between topics are also likely to affect gesture: in a discourse involving a large amount of spatial information, a large amount of spatial and/or motor meaning can be expected in gesture (Hostetter, Alibali, & Kita, 2007).
With all communication, listeners gather meaning from speech, but also from additional modalities, and so gesture is a key element in procedural discourses, due to their spatial content.
Conceptualising a landscape as a spatial entity and associated assemblage of practices, discourses and history, this paper dissects the landscape in terms of land uses for residential and cultural purposes, growing, grazing and gathering.
In this study, we use a hybrid approach that crosses quantitative methods (network analysis based on bibliometrics) and qualitative methods (discourse analysis and literature review) at different spatial and temporal scales.
Local government and Hindu ideologues creatively juxtaposed neoliberal economic polices, global discourses of Islamophobia, local ethnocentrism to alter the spatial morphologies of Ahmedabad.
