With the ‘loss’ of its last American colonies, and increasingly positioned as the internal ‘other’ of Europe, the Spanish sought to build a new Ibero-African empire and leverage their historical, geographical and racial ties to northwest Africa through the built environment to justify colonial rule and accrue political capital. Yet Spain’s colonial geographical project required Black fungibility both as its raw material—enabling those new colonial landscapes, real or imagined—and as a limit category that could be occupied by any/body. Drawing from both primary archival materials and a host of secondary sources, I show how space—broadly understood as geographic imaginations, architectural styles, urban designs and the uses and policing of public places—became key to orchestrating such similarities and differences, capitalizing on the fluidity of racial categories and securing the supremacy of a struggling Spanish colonizer.</p>","PeriodicalId":14327,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Urban and Regional Research","volume":"50 4","pages":"960-981"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1468-2427.70049","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148522806","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this conjuncture, understanding how urban transformations are advanced necessitates grasping how small-scale efforts are carried forward or sustained despite these brief time horizons and a related condition of resource scarcity that urban bureaucracies also confront. To address this question, this article develops a figure we provisionally term the <i>chainmaker.</i> Building on literature that discusses the role of intermediaries in debates on entrepreneurial governance and urban experimentation, this heuristic captures the role of urban practitioners who build temporal chains, that is, who sustain ideas, projects or reforms across different initiatives and bureaucratic cycles in the long run. We draw on a comparative study that traced the functioning of these initiatives in four secondary cities in Mexico and India to explore two different dimensions of intermediation over time. This work of anchoring and sustaining small-scale policy efforts to effect lasting change reveals the challenges to creating continuity and effecting structural change and the different conditions of that work in the studied contexts.</p>","PeriodicalId":14327,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Urban and Regional Research","volume":"50 4","pages":"785-800"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1468-2427.70045","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148533367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Where capitalist logics of accumulation, enclosure and exclusion produce abandoned space through the city, urban commoners remake that space to serve the needs of inhabitants. Without hiding the paradoxes and risks of repair, based on years-long ethnography in the Liberated Spaces in Naples, Italy, we demonstrate how repair and reconstruction produced the conditions for societal transformation in the city. We show how this was achieved through four connected processes that underpinned the making of these urban commons. In doing so, we develop a theoretical contribution on the relationship between repair and the commons as it affects: the role of practices of material repair of previously abandoned buildings in shaping the commons; the significance of memory reconstruction in reconstituting these spaces; the formation of social bonds and collective subjectivities through these practices; and the potential of repair in the urban commons to expand these practices and prefigure broader social transformation.</p>","PeriodicalId":14327,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Urban and Regional Research","volume":"50 4","pages":"1020-1039"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1468-2427.70048","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148532677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the case of Chongli, a site for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, this article provides a double decentering of the ways in which a mountain region was urbanized within a context of State-led financialized green entrepreneurialism. We emphasize that, as a bet on future revenues from growth and by considering extra-economic purposes, the built environment questions territorial value creation and extraction. By reflecting on the impacts of the increasing circulation of individuals’ incomes on territorial development, we posit that territorial value creation refers to a system made up of export-, visitor- and household-based flows of revenues that circulate at varied and larger scales. Simultaneously, the built environment incorporates this territorial value and is transformed into financial assets through various circuits of finance and value extraction. The TBM extends the business model concept developed by post-neoliberal/colonial scholars that calls for decentering analysis away from the dominant variegated financialization of the built environment approach that was developed from Western contexts.

This article seeks to examine the role of the implementation of a ‘top-down’ system of migration governance and the influence of the media in the emergence of NIMBY mobilizations against refugee accommodation facilities. To this end, it adopts a socio-spatial approach, perceiving space as a specific sociological concept and a non-autonomous interpretative parameter of the social dynamics, distinguishing the logics of production and appropriation of space. Furthermore, adopting a Lefebvrian perspective, it explores the effects of the ad hoc siting of refugee camps as representational spaces, at the level of both collective spatial representations and spatial practices through the lens of the media. To achieve the research aim, it employs analysis of secondary data related to refugee arrivals and the distribution of refugees in the accommodation units, and document analysis of 50 national and local press publications.

The research shows how feminist activists have used cultural demonstrations and established alternative memorials to commemorate women who have suffered from violence and crime.
