- Description
- Non-representational theory emerged from British Social and Cultural Geography in the 1990s. A book of the same name was published in 2008 by Nigel Thrift, the originator of the theory (Thrift 2008). Taken up enthusiastically by several of Thrift's postgraduate students, non-representational theory was debated and further developed over several years but mostly in a philosophical vein. Then, in 2015, the first text on non-representational methodologies was published (Vannini 2015) demonstrating how non-representational styles of thought and action could be applied to geographical problems and conditions. In 2019, the first book to bring non-representational theory together with the creative arts was published (Boyd and Edwardes 2019), comprising a plethora of examples of how artists and cultural geographers were engaging creatively with the theory in their arts-based research and practice at that time.
