Abstract
Feminist geography now has a rich and varied body of scholarship on the spaces, practices and politics of motherhood. This work spans a range of cultural contexts and employs a range of different methodological approaches. This chapter gives a (necessarily selective) overview of this scholarship, focusing on key trends and current theoretical and political concerns, including: the political economy of mothering; motherhood, identity and difference; mothering and transnationalism; activist mothering; motherhood and embodiment; and mothering with the more-than-human.
