Reimagining the Politics of Citation Through Critical Curation
1 Techniques of Selection This paper emerges from the Geographies of Erasure and Silencing in Academia project. A key focus of the project is citational politics, which ‘critiques the way some knowledge is cited and circulated while others are not’ (Liboiron and Li 2022).

AI literacy in geographic education and research: Capabilities, caveats, and criticality
1 INTRODUCTION Concerns about runaway artificial intelligence (AI) are at the forefront of contemporary political, social, and scientific discourse. Much has already been said about the disruptive – even existential threat – posed by self-improving AI to human health, the environment, survival, and cyber-security (Federspiel et al., 2023; Guembe et al., 2022; Knight, 2023). To some, language-AI is a ‘weapon of mass deception’ and an enabler of criminal activity (Sison et al., 2023).
Whose growth in whose planetary boundaries? Decolonising planetary justice in the Anthropocene
1 INTRODUCTION In summer 2023, wildfires in Canada brought the devastating consequences of climate and ecological breakdown to the heart of capitalism: Wall Street. Unprecedented and apocalyptic-appearing smoke and smog blanketed New York, carrying the experience of drastic environmental vulnerability to those erstwhile largely protected from the everyday impacts of climate change.

Specifically, I examine how to conduct research without representing Black bodies as a fixed, exoticised Other that is oppositional to a disembodied white Self.
