Progress report examines legal agency in geographical scholarship, suggesting broader understandings and implications.
This third progress report concerns legal agency, and how it is explicitly and implicitly approached in legal geographical scholarship. In addition to being connected to legal experts and formal legal systems, the conception of legal agency has been broadened towards everyday legal agency, and, furthermore, towards other-than-human agencies. These expansions are steps towards more responsible legal geographies that acknowledge the relationality and diversity of legal agency, the agency of the less powerful, and the affective relation between human and nonhuman agencies.
