The online version of Keywords in Radical Geography: Antipode at 50 is free to download here. Alternatively, print copies can be purchased for just GB£7 / US$10 here. ******************************************************************************** To celebrate Antipode’s 50th anniversary, we’ve brought together 50 short keyword essays by a range of scholars at varying career stages who all, in some way, have some kind of affinity with Antipode’s radical geographical project. The entries in this volume are diverse, eclectic, and to an extent random, however they all speak to our discipline’s past, present and future in exciting and suggestive ways Contributors have taken unusual or novel terms, concepts or sets of ideas important to their research, and their essays discuss them in relation to radical and critical geography’s histories, current condition and possible future directions This fractal, playful and provocative intervention in the field stands as a fitting testimony to the role that Antipode has played in the generation of radical geographical engagement with the world

The Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) population continues to obfuscate the discourse on diversity and higher education institutions. The historical and contemporary experiences of AAPIs in higher education clearly indicate that their presence has influenced and reinforced the importance of diversity in educational environments.

Our current moment is one of profound political, ecomonic and environmental change. Historically, these moments of transition have seen a parallel period of cultural, and notably architectural-flux. In the late 1970s this was manifested as Postmodernism. Today, a number of architects are looking again at this movement and redeploying a range of its tactics and approaches using contemporary methods and techniques. These include different modes of collage, formal reference and quotation, stylistic eclectism, symbolism in form, material and ornament, and the bold, expressive use of colour, both natural and synthetic. While the design that results from these 'multiform' tactics and approaches has been seen as a kind of neo-Postmodernism, this issue argues that this is a simplistic and superficial reading. Instead, it posits this phenomenon as the architectural attempt, both conscious and unconscious, to reflect, grapple with and make sense of the present age of transition, which has been accelerated by the global pandemic. Rather than responding to this situation by attempting to marshal architecture around a single unifying narrative, this issue makes the case for transformative possibilities offered by an approach that is ad hoc, eclectic and pluralist
