the last several decades, the purported objectivity of maps has been
extensively interrogated. Beneath a veneer of neutrality, we see
that maps are actually social expressions, forged from frequently
contested geographic knowledge. While laudable moves toward
participatory mapping in the early 1990s sought to include diverse
constituents, more recent studies have turned a critical eye upon the
participatory nature of these endeavors. Tracking developments in
both web services and software programs, mapping and spatial data
production have skyrocketed in popularity due to the geospatial web
(“geoweb”), such as Google’s suite of proprietary programs, and
open-source alternatives such as OpenStreetMap. However, while both
proprietary and open-source systems might increase public engagement
with participatory mapping, these systems rest on diametrically
opposed value sets concerning the production and dissemination of
geographic knowledge. Debate has begun to rage among academics and
practitioners concerning the ethical implications of these various
software platforms. This special issue seeks to provide a window into
these debates and the changing face of participatory mapping.

Proposed Special Issue of Antipode

The Politics of Participatory and Crowd-sourced Knowledge Production

Over the last several decades, the purported objectivity of maps has been extensively interrogated. Beneath a veneer of neutrality, we see that maps are actually social expressions, forged from frequently contested geographic knowledge. While laudable moves toward participatory mapping in the early 1990s sought to include diverse constituents, more recent studies have turned a critical eye upon the participatory nature of these endeavors. Tracking developments in both web services and software programs, mapping and spatial data production have skyrocketed in popularity due to the geospatial web (“geoweb”), such as Google’s suite of proprietary programs, and open-source alternatives such as OpenStreetMap. However, while both proprietary and open-source systems might increase public engagement with participatory mapping, these systems rest on diametrically opposed value sets concerning the production and dissemination of geographic knowledge. Debate has begun to rage among academics and practitioners concerning the ethical implications of these various software platforms. This special issue seeks to provide a window into these debates and the changing face of participatory mapping.

Articles are requested for publication in a special issue journal of Antipode. Papers should not exceed 9,500 words, inclusive of endnotes, references, etc. Articles should be based on research with these data management systems, but also engage with larger theoretical questions, including but not limited to:

1. How do different mapping platforms differ epistemologically and practically, from both academic and end-user perspectives?

2. How might or might not these differences impact public participatory mapping activities, and a participatory ethic writ large?

3. What roles should data ownership for marginalized communities take within these platforms? Who benefits from current data ownership policies, and how are these concerns implicated in these mapping platforms?

4. Do these differing approaches to geographic knowledge ownership inform the types of knowledge that should be produced in any of these platforms?

È un journal, che sarà pubblicato nel 2013, tempi forse un po' lunghini
per un discorso più adatto a un dibattito live.

Eh sì sono solo due settimane, mi è arrivata a luglio, scusa l'ho
inoltrata solo ora :/
