Abstract: Doreen Massey (1944–2016): a geographer who really mattered. Regional Studies. In this virtual special issue we celebrate Doreen Massey’s work, and specifically the influence of her meticulously crafted ‘relational approach’ to understanding space and place on debates in regional studies. We bring together the four papers (three single-authored and one co-authored) by Doreen that appeared in Regional Studies with a further six papers by other authors, which bear witness to the influence of Doreen’s ‘relational’ thinking in understanding regions. The editorial places these papers in the context not only of debates in regional studies but also in relation to the inspiring academic trajectory of Doreen’s understanding of space, place and gender.
