Stephen Legg

    Il lavoro di Stephen Legg approfondisce le intricate connessioni tra geografia e società, esplorando come il potere e la governance si manifestano all'interno degli assetti spaziali delle comunità. Indaga sul profondo impatto del colonialismo, esaminando come le problematiche sociali siano modellate da più ampie politiche governative e strutture di potere. La dottrina di Legg offre una lente critica attraverso cui comprendere la complessa interazione tra spazio, controllo ed esperienza umana. La sua ricerca illumina come l'organizzazione dello spazio influenzi la vita individuale e plasmi le traiettorie storiche.

    • The aim of this book is to bring together geographers, and Schmitt experts who are attuned to the spatial dimensions of his work, to discuss The Nomos of the Earth in the International Law of the Jus Publicum Europaeum (Schmitt, 1950 [2003]).

      Focusing on the spatial politics of brothels in British India during the interwar period, the book explores how reform campaigns shifted from tolerating to suppressing these establishments. By combining insights from sexology and hygiene with moral concerns about sexual slavery, reformers argued that brothels exacerbated social issues rather than contained them. Stephen Legg examines the multifaceted impacts of these campaigns across various scales, revealing how they reshaped urban and colonial boundaries and ultimately led to the civil abandonment of prostitutes.
