Esta Sección Temática tiene su origen en un panel realizado en 2017 en el marco del congreso anual de la Sociedad Chilena de Ciencias Geográficas (SOCHIGEO), cuyo objetivo era entender el interés de la geografía para los pueblos indígenas y sus realidades espaciales en Chile, tanto como las razones sociales, políticas y académicas de las diferencias de este interés entre Chile y Argentina. Se propuso abordar este tema a través de la expresión “geografías indígenas”, para conectar las discusiones del panel con aquellas que se han desarrollado en la literatura de lengua inglesa desde la década del 2000 con la etiqueta de Indigenous geographies. Identificamos que estas geografías remiten al estudio de la relación entre pueblos indígenas y sus espacios, mientras que en otros contextos se orientan además hacia un campo de reflexión y estudio que busca descolonizar los saberes y las prácticas de investigación en contextos indígenas. Las cuatro intervenciones aquí presentadas van precedidas de una Introducción que pone los debates del panel sobre los aportes y límites de las geografías indígenas tanto en la perspectiva de las particularidades locales en Chile y Argentina, o regionales en el Cono Sur, como de los debates internacionales al respecto.

In this article, we interrogate the representation and construction of public park space in a settler colonial city: Toronto/Tkaronto. First, we draw on the relationship between urban neoliberalism and prudentialism to demonstrate the way public health authorities in Toronto/Tkaronto promoted a neoliberal ideology of prudentialism that emphasized individual action (e.g., social distancing, personal hygiene, sheltering in place) in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Second, we consider the extent to which this response congealed and combined with broader anxieties that were used to manage more than the virus. We focus specifically on the way these anxieties took hold in public park space, and in particular the response to encampment communities. We theorize prudentialism, as an instrument of the white settler state, to interrogate the twin processes of organized abandonment and organized violence (Gilmore 2022), which were made visible in the treatment of unhoused people amidst the pandemic in an affluent and seemingly progressive city in a nation now known as Canada. Recognizing that COVID-19 has afflicted global cities marred by real estate speculation and the continual reliance on the commodification of Indigenous Land, which has made homelessness and urban displacement a lived condition for some, we argue that public health crises result not from—and thereby cannot be solved by—prudential responsibilization, but from the willful ignorance of the neoliberal, capitalist white settler [real estate] state (Stein 2019).

Millions of students in the United States are saddled with trillions of dollars in debt. The debt crisis is a behemoth, though, importantly, it is not monolithic. Experiences of student debt are unequal and uneven, and it is critical to study them as such to address them. There are many organizations bringing attention to the student debt crisis; however, there are surprisingly few institutions dedicated to studying it. Further, there are few studies that link the student debt crisis to other competing, nested crises of the present (e.g., climate change). Using theories of debt and indebtedness to contextualize the student debt crisis, this paper utilizes auto-ethnographic accounts of student debt – as a student debtor and faculty member – and ‘gray literature’ (reports, policies, and statistics) to highlight and analyze the uneven geographies of student debt in the US. The aim of this paper is to argue that a geographic perspective is generative for studying student debt because it allows for a more nuanced understanding of where and why student debt exists and persists with the intention of complementing ongoing activism to abolish student debt. This paper concludes with four potential pathways for future geographic research on student debt and a call for action.

With increased interest in Latinx geographies there is a need for more in-depth exploration of how Latinx geographers are approaching this work in their own words. In this article, we open a discussion on Latinx geographies that is grounded in our multiple, different, embodied experiences as Latinx geographers who have gathered over the last several years to have conversations, create spaces and build relationships of care and accountability with each other. We reflect on how we each arrived to Latinx geographies, what it means to us, how we do Latinx geographies and what is on the horizon. We refuse singular or imposed definitions, and collectively imagine an expansive, nuanced, and relational Latinx geographies that critically engages with difference, conquest, power, and liberation across Turtle Island and Abya Yala.

Las dinámicas de urbanización en el periodo neoliberal pueden ser pensadas como nuevas formas de cercamiento de los bienes comunes o como una forma de acumulación por desposesión, según Harvey (2005). Esto despierta nuevas estrategias de acción colectiva que se expresan como espacios de resistencia contra el despojo capitalista. En el presente artículo nos interesa hacer un cuestionamiento al urbanismo neoliberal y sus procesos de gentrificación, a través de la defensa de los bienes comunes urbanos vistos como un proceso que se ocupa fundamentalmente de desmercantilizar el espacio público, cuyo rasgo principal no solo es ya potencialmente antagónico a los intereses del capital, sino transformador por su defensa de las estrategias de reproducción social mediante la autoorganización y la puesta en común de estructuras de reciprocidad que refuerzan los lazos convivenciales y comunitarios. Este estudio se centra en las dinámicas de urbanización neoliberal de la ciudad de Querétaro en donde los procesos de gentrificación constituyen una forma de despojo urbano que amenaza con desplazar a la población de los barrios tradicionales del centro histórico, además de transformar sus modos de vida. En respuesta, el emblemático barrio de San Francisquito genera un proceso de resistencia que se caracteriza por la creación de formas organizativas que tienen en el centro la defensa de lo común, y la reapropiación del territorio, a partir de la reinvindicación de sus características identitarias y socioculturales.
