New paper out in @tesg-journal.bsky.social with Kiran Bhairannavar. Drawing on fieldwork in Delhi, we show how footpath tea stalls become sites of social reproduction through 'symbiotic care': credit, everyday exchange and shared rules of space. Read: doi.org/10.1111/tesg... #GeoSky

"The footpath tea stall is an infrastructure—not in spite of its informality but through it." In a #TESG article out now, @vdhanda.bsky.social & K. Bhairannavar show how everyday practices sustain urban life in ways that planning frameworks do not measure. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....

Josephine Rekers and I made a map! Our contribution to the new Geographica section in @tesg-journal.bsky.social Using both the pace and level of ageing, we highlight the "messy middle" of the urban–rural spectrum and the diverse regional ageing trajectories. doi.org/10.1111/tesg...

Map of Sweden titled "Subnational Population Ageing in Sweden, 1988–2023". The figure presents the results of a sequence analysis combining both the level and pace of population ageing in Swedish municipalities.

Ageing trajectories are grouped into four clusters: Stable Young (blue), Delayed Ageing (light orange), Accelerated Ageing (dark orange), and Old & Ageing (dark purple). Sequence plots explain the classification. In these plots, colour hue indicates the level of ageing (blue = younger, orange = intermediate, purple = older populations), while shading indicates the pace of ageing (light = de-ageing, medium = slow ageing, dark = fast ageing).

The map shows clear spatial variation in ageing trajectories. Municipalities around Stockholm are predominantly classified as Stable Young, while many municipalities in northern Sweden fall into the Accelerated Ageing or Old & Ageing clusters. Southern Sweden contains a mix of Delayed and Accelerated Ageing trajectories.

A bar chart compares the four ageing clusters with conventional urban–rural categories. While large cities are predominantly Stable Young and rural municipalities are more often Old & Ageing, medium-sized and small cities are distributed across all four clusters. This highlights substantial variation within the urban–rural spectrum and suggests that regional ageing patterns cannot be fully understood through a simple urban–rural divide.

The failure of the #Netherlands to disperse jobs beyond the #Randstad was more sociological than economic. Resistance —as @michielvanmeeteren.bsky.social & @martijnjsmit.bsky.social argue in @tesg-journal.bsky.social— came from civil servant’s deep-seated space preferences. doi.org/10.1111/tesg...
