- W2017191188 abstract "In common with geographical inquiry more generally, questions of power have long been fundamental to research in economic geography. For instance, investigations into the fundamentally uneven nature of economic development point to the enduring power asymmetries between different places and actors within the global space economy (see Storper and Walker, 1989). Meanwhile, the extensive literature on world and global cities has identified certain cities as particularly powerful actors in choreographing the transnational flows of knowledge, people and capital that characterise the contemporary global economy (Beaverstock et al 2000; Sassen, 2001). However, whilst questions of power are implicitly central to these literatures, power has only rarely been placed centre stage. This oversight has started to be addressed through an explicit focus on power by authors such as John Allen (2003) and in work beyond geography such as Stewart Clegg’s (1989) research in Management Studies. These developments have stimulated a more careful consideration of power relations by economic geographers over recent years. Indeed, this renewed and explicit focus on questions of power is particularly evident in work that develops relational and production network approaches to understanding uneven economic development (see Yeung, 2005; Henderson et al 2002 respectively). Inspired by this resurgence of explicit considerations of power within economic geography, the papers in this Special Issue stem from two sessions organised at the 2006 RGS-IBG Annual Conference in London. The aim of these sessions was to use detailed empirical research from a range of geographic and economic contexts to develop understandings of power and the relationship between organisations, power, space and place. Echoing this focus, in this Introduction we consider how understandings of power within economic geography, particularly from a relational perspective, have been developed to date. We then consider the questions this raises for research into the organizational geographies of power in the future. We focus on work in relational economic geography, including recent work on global production networks because, as we discuss in more detail below, these literatures have been central to the development of the theoretical foundations that facilitate more sophisticated analyses of power in economic organisations from a geographical perspective. We develop our arguments over four further sections. First, we consider the central insights developed by recent theorisations of power within geography and the social sciences as they relate to our focus on organisations. Second, we explore how these analyses have been developed within relational economic geography. Third, we provide an example of how these analyses have been advanced by focusing on economic geographical research into processes of neoliberalisation. Finally, we reflect on the consequences of this development for economic geographers and other researchers interested in the intersections between organisations, power, space and place." @default.
