- This 193pp monograph represents the culmination of a decade of international collaboration. Supported by multiple fellowships, it demonstrates a sustained engagement with the neglected fate of formerly significant urban landmarks. Published in the leading health geography monograph series, it develops a novel classification of asylum fates through careful use of archival data, fieldwork, interviews, and virtual material across the UK, North America and New Zealand. Ideas about recycling, renewal, remembrance and memorialisation are evolved from engagement with multi-disciplinary scholarship, showing for the first time challenges posed by the long shadow of stigma and questioning responses that have emerged.
