Deborah P Dixon Editor & Author

Deborah P. Dixon is a Professor of Geography at the University of Glasgow. She has previously written on feminist geopolitics, and in particular the gendering of Mexican, female, migrant labour and associated notions of vulnerability. She has also emphasised the manner in which feminist geography has been, and continues to be, an arena of critical thought and practice that poses various conceptual and methodological challenges for the geographic discipline as a whole. Most recently, Deborah has written on the notion of the feminine-monstrous, and specifically the transformative potential of the male grotesque. Sallie A.

She has published over 60 articles and book chapters and two award-winning textbooks. In addition to her academic work she is involved in community engagement activities around public education.
