The first issue of the 2016 volume of Environment and Planning D: Society and Space (volume 34, number 1) is now online. It includes an excellent theme issue edited by Marieke de Goede, Anna Leander and Gavin Sullivan on ‘The politics of the list’, as well as two fascinating stand-alone articles – one by Andreas Philippopoulos-Mihalopoulos on the ontology of atmosphere, the other by and Nicola Perugini on the politics of human shielding.
The guest editors’ introduction to the theme issue is free to access for the next month. The remaining contents require subscription to access, but see a freely available photo essay by Gordon and Perugini as a supplement to their article here.
