Overview
- Fills a gap in the literature concerning the complexities of regions in transition and their importance in the 21st century as indicators of broader potential social and economic disruption and renewal
- Incorporates interdisciplinary knowledge and perspectives to provide important and timely contributions as to what regions are understood to be, and their wider significance
- Offers diverse perspectives by researchers and their lived experience in regional communities and environments across disciplines spanning social sciences, environmental science, critical indigenous studies, art practice and pedagogy, tourism, health and cultural geography
- Identifies an emerging ‘landscape of practice’ in regional research, and translates ‘knowledgeability’ from local to global contexts
- Draws attention to the ethical role of the researcher within regional communities and environments, not as a separate observer, but as an embedded and active agent across a range of human and non-human elements
