个人简介
Rachel Woodward is Professor of Human Geography, and is based in the School of Geography Politics and Sociology at Newcastle University. Her research interests lie in two broad areas. The first is the study of the ways in which military activities and militarism are geographically constituted and expressed. This work includes studies of the politics of military land use, military environmentalism and representations of conservation and environmental protection on the defence estate, the development consequences of the conversion of military sites into to post-military uses, and military landscapes. The second research area is the sociology and culture of armed forces, which includes studies of gender politics in the armed forces, soldier identities, and the representation of military personnel in text and image.
Currently, Rachel is researching the ‘value’ of the University Armed Service Units (along with Dr Alison Williams and Dr Neil Jenkings), and is also undertaking a study entitled ‘Women in the British armed forces: lessons from Afghanistan’. She has also recently finished an ESRC project on the social production of the contemporary British military memoir (with Neil Jenkings), on the representation and interpretation of military landscapes, and is continuing to disseminate the findings of this research. She teaches a Stage 3 Newcastle University module GEO3063 Militarism: Space and Society, and on a Stage 2 module GEO2105 Military Environments and Landscapes Fieldcourse. Rachel joined the School of Geography Politics and Sociology in 2005. Prior to this, she worked for nine years in the Centre for Rural Economy and the School of Agriculture, Food and Rural Development (both Newcastle University), and has also held research posts at Leicester University and University of Wales, Lampeter. She holds a PhD from Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London, and a BA degree in Geography from the University of Exeter.
Rachel welcomes enquiries from students interested in conducting research on any aspect of military geographies, including the sociology of the military, representation of militarism and military activities, and on military environments and landscapes.
