Research Areas

Research Overview

Opening up empirical and theoretical possibilities across the culture-economy divide is my central intellectual agenda. Theoretical and conceptual influences stem from my undergraduate and postgraduate training in both economic geography and literary/cultural studies - this translates into research that seeks to interweave analytical frameworks from Marxian, feminist, and poststructuralist economic geography with the texture of ethnographic methods. Most of my research focuses on the urban and regional scales, and currently I am especially energised by questions of regional transformation amidst historical inheritances.

Impact Story

The extent and significance of rural and regional festivals in Australia
Summary
UOW research has had significant impact on rural and regional festivals in Australia and internationally, benefiting regional development policy, and influencing the work of local authorities, arts organisations, and festival bodies. The project’s unprecedented documentation of the previously undervalued extent and significance of rural and regional festivals contributed to the recognition of their importance in debates about regional development, while the individual events themselves benefited from improved management and the legitimation of their economic contribution to the rural and regional sector. <a href="https://research-impact.uow.edu.au/case-studies/reinventing-rural-places-the-extent-and-significance-of-rural-and-regional-festivals-in-australia/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://research-impact.uow.edu.au/case-studies/reinventing-rural-places-the-extent-and-significance-of-rural-and-regional-festivals-in-australia/</a>

Research Areas

Research Overview

Opening up empirical and theoretical possibilities across the culture-economy divide is my central intellectual agenda. Theoretical and conceptual influences stem from my undergraduate and postgraduate training in both economic geography and literary/cultural studies - this translates into research that seeks to interweave analytical frameworks from Marxian, feminist, and poststructuralist economic geography with the texture of ethnographic methods. Most of my research focuses on the urban and regional scales, and currently I am especially energised by questions of regional transformation amidst historical inheritances.

Impact Story

The extent and significance of rural and regional festivals in Australia
Summary
UOW research has had significant impact on rural and regional festivals in Australia and internationally, benefiting regional development policy, and influencing the work of local authorities, arts organisations, and festival bodies. The project’s unprecedented documentation of the previously undervalued extent and significance of rural and regional festivals contributed to the recognition of their importance in debates about regional development, while the individual events themselves benefited from improved management and the legitimation of their economic contribution to the rural and regional sector. <a href="https://research-impact.uow.edu.au/case-studies/reinventing-rural-places-the-extent-and-significance-of-rural-and-regional-festivals-in-australia/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://research-impact.uow.edu.au/case-studies/reinventing-rural-places-the-extent-and-significance-of-rural-and-regional-festivals-in-australia/</a>
