Space and Place: Exploring Critical Issues is an inter-disciplinary study that offers new collaborative ideas on a variety of aspects of space and place, ranging from philosophies and semiotics of space and place, to issues of gender, power and surveillance, identity, home, belonging, performance, borders and boundaries and techniques of representation.
