The cultural turn has had a profound effect throughout human geography: changing foci of study, innovating methodologies and challenging disciplinary boundaries. The cultural turn has produced sustained interest in nature/culture relationships; post-colonial geographies, gender, sexuality, national identities, consumption and globalisation. We are also now seeing growing interest in corporeality, emotion and sensual geographies, practice and performativity (Scott, 2004). While the cultural turn in geography has been matched by a `spatial turn' elsewhere in the social sciences (Cook et al., 2000), geographers are still attentive to places, their constitution through social relations and their interrelationships.
