ABSTRACT
The first chapter, The whys and hows of situated writing as theory and method, builds on Haraway’s writing on situated knowledge, Spivak’s politics of translation, the concept of diffraction, and Yuval-Davis’ framework of situated intersectionality, which includes spatiality analysis. The chapter offers an in-depth insight into situated writing that remains sensitive to privilege and subordination, diversity, conditions of life, and spatial dimensions related to the life of the writer, such as homes, streets, neighbourhood, and national and transnational contexts.
