    Bringing the Falklands/Malvinas Home: Young People's Everyday Engagements with Geopolitics in Domestic Space
    (2020) Benwell, Matthew C.; Gasel F., Alejandro; Núñez González, Andrés
    This paper draws on recent research examining feminist and everyday geopolitics to focus on the relatively neglected domestic sphere as a space where geopolitical events like the Falklands/Malvinas war are learnt, (re)produced, remembered and contested by young people. It presents qualitative data drawn from interviews with young people from Argentina (Rio Gallegos) and the Falkland Islands (Stanley), locations with intimate connections to the 1982 war. It argues that research in domestic environments that engages the familial relations, objects and practices that embody geopolitical pasts can help make sense of how young people (are able to) express geopolitical agency.
