Abstract:

Based on ethnographic fieldwork on female prostitution in the border areas between Portugal and Spain, this article focuses on the analysis of physical space as a dimension of substantial influence over the organization and social dynamics of the cross-border demand for sexual services. The basic aim is to understand the strategies underpinning the localization of “clubs,” and to interpret the processes whereby their clients incorporate specific geographies of desire/eroticism and cartographies of male (in)fidelity into their everyday lives. In order to do this, special analytical attention wa

Abstract:

A liminal space / phase is a dimension of in-betweens’ where two identities can co-exist. Objects and traditions brought from home countries into foreign domesticities strengthen cultural identities; however, they are also symptomatic of the mourning process that is a part of the re[1]homing process. In Interpreter of Maladies, Lahiri’s characters grow more accustomed to living in foreign dwellings, and learn to negotiate between the culture, food and traditions of their home and ‘host’ country’ Lahiri also explores the effects that personal conflicts have on hybrid domesticities.

Abstract:

This article explores the development directions of liminal spaces and cities as a whole within the broader framework of neoliberalism in the Italian metropolitan context. First, neoliberalism was defined and considered in the context of liminal spaces and urban development, according to the international literature perspective. Then, with specific reference to the Italian case, through semi-structured interviews, it was found that liminal spaces, despite facing marginalisation, translocalisation and defamiliarisation, acted as antagonists and nuclei of resistance to the encroaching framework

This article analyzes the sociomaterial construction of plural and hierarchical leadership in liminal and dominant spaces. Combining insights from, first, the emerging body of studies exploring the role of spaces in sociomaterial construction of leadership; second, spatial management and organization research focusing on liminal spaces; and third, Victor Turner’s social structure–anti-structure framework, it is argued that dominant spaces actively participate in a sociomaterial construction of leadership that reflects the social structure of an organization.

AbstractThe interaction between ‘marginal’ music performance (whether socially or musically marginal, e.g. busking, ambient music, etc.) and ‘liminal’ spaces is at first sight a characteristically twentieth-century phenomenon. However, performance history as revealed not only through historical scholarship but through contemporary anecdotal or fictional writings can contextualize these current uses of music in negotiating public space, while revealing some of our assumptions about performance in general. I argue that much of liminal performance is concerned with the appropriation and retention

Abstract:

In recent years, an online subculture dedicated to the appreciation and exploration of the aesthetic of empty spaces that evoke eerie and surreal feelings has sprouted on forums such as 4chan and Reddit. Users have taken to calling these “liminal spaces”, defined by existing in a state between being utilities and being ruins. Liminality has been defined in the fields of sociology and anthropology as the quality of being in between two stages of social and/or cultural status.

In this paper, we, as early career academics, share how our identities and transitioning between spaces contribute to our becoming. Using storyboarding, we draw on intersectionality and liminal theories to examine how our identities and our transition between the liminal and dominant spaces have influenced our identity construction and shaped our becoming. We learn that our identities are in a state of constant construction and that the academic spaces we have transitioned between are, and have been, significant to our becoming.

In this research, we brought together various theories and speculative conceptual connections of otherness associated with liminality especially as seen through one methodological experiment and art-based intervention, namely flash mobs. From our perspective, liminality and liminal spaces are incomplete and always becoming since often they cannot be documented or described through existing language and normative concepts. Moving away from normativity and speaking back from liminal spaces carry risks since complex and intersubjective liminal spaces challenge the authority of the researcher, kno

Humans and their feelings are a 'unique' study in architectural design, such as how humans behave in some spatial settings. Spatial settings are usually defined as an environment that contains specific activities. However, what about transitional spaces or corridors that only serve as intermediaries for 'some walking experience'? The discussion related to liminal space becomes interesting, mainly when studied from the perspective of architectural psychology. This study aims to investigate human experiences and perceptions of liminal spaces, focusing on two locations: the corridors and the stai

Abstract:

Among the scrapheap of society’s unwanted materials lies a vast and wondrous world of fashion potential. In the liminal phase between a product’s rejection and its fate as landfill, designers are called on to create a positive alternative. The upcycling process encourages designers to consider how they might release the past social lives of products to uncover the design potential of new creations. Upcycling introduces the dimensions of time, designer knowledge and skills into the creation of a garment or accessory. This practice makes a place in fashion for challenging the hypercycle of consu

It does so by stressing the formative and transformative possibilities of those threshold spaces that often get bypassed, surpassed or trespassed.

It posits liminality as a potentiating conceptual space for new ontologies in relation to the human “I.” Throughout, the performance, that is the occurrence, of mundane abje

The earlier readings of misogyny and chauvinism into Shakespearian heroines’ assumption of the male identity open vistas in the liminal space where these characters are conferred a privilege to navigate spaces beyond conventional fixities. By subjecting gender binaries to artis

Abstract:

Through the lens of a particular hospice in southeastern Pennsylvania, I aim to observe how death is approached within a culture that swings between ignoring and glorifying death. Through on-site ethnographic engagement with patients of the hospice unit, informal and formal interviews with hospice staff, and scholarly analysis, I researched to discover answers to the following questions: What worlds do those who are knowingly dying inhabit? What choices do they make? What do they do and talk about? The answers to these questions offer an approach to dying that encompasses the liminal period be

Abstract:

In a metropolis and metropolitan public space, increased attention has recently been given to overlooked and uncontrolled spaces. Considered as spatial 'voids,' 'idle spaces,' 'interstices,' and 'in-between' spaces, they all have one characteristic in common: 'the waiting for use' potential that can be ignited by users' creativity and tenacity, and with designers taking the role of 'enablers' rather than 'deciders'. Hence, urban leftover space becomes meaningful place with a strong local identity, enabling new connections and maximising its socio-spatial potential. This paper analyses Tokyo as

Abstract:

'I am becoming someone completely different …': the utilisation of liminality in Vaselinetjie (Little Vaseline) by Anoeschka von Meck The concepts of liminality, transition and borders are utilised extensively in “Vaselinetjie” by Anoeschka von Meck (2004). This is especially the case regarding her use of characterisation, focalisation, time and space (including place and landscape) in the construction of identity. As a liminal character, Vaseline finds herself in different kinds of liminal spaces on a regular basis, like the children’s home, which is foregrounded in the novel, as well as in c

Abstract:

This article examines the representation of postcolonial memory in Tony Gatlif’s 2004 film Exils / Exiles. The constant movement that occurs in the film through travel, music, and dance reinforces the permanent dislocation of the film’s pied-noir and beurette protagonists. The film’s road-movie narrative represents, on the one hand, a gravitational pull away from the French Republican integrationist ‘centre’ towards an increasingly complex and diverse landscape of cultural identities linked by France’s colonial history, and on the other, a sense of nostalgia for an Algeria that no longer exist
