However, urban policies in the United Kingdom (UK) and globally frequently fail to produce healthy towns and cities. Given the highly centralized nature of UK policy, we analyzed national UK policy documents published since 2010 in two key areas of urban policy: housing supply and transport. We found that health is largely absent in narratives shaping urban development and, where health is included, it is as an assumed indirect outcome of delivering other policy agendas. Thus, we recommend that explicit direct and measurable health objectives must be integrated front and center in urban policies, and cross-sector collaboration across national government on health prevention to manage the complex linkages across policy areas. Evidencing the interactive effects between improving health outcomes and dominant urban policy agendas can incentivize shared accountability for health outcomes.","PeriodicalId":17420,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Urban Affairs","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135884955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research conceptualizes the right to resettlement in China by synthesizing the literature on resettlement, the right to the city, and informality. This research captures four subsets of rights to resettlement based on a review of existing resettlement literature, including rights to economic enhancement, spatial adaptation, social stability, and political inclusiveness. While state-led resettlement policies should have prioritized inclusive resettlement, our case study reveals the significant role played by villagers’ bottom-up approaches, utilizing informality and collective strategies, in enhancing inclusiveness. The research adopts an explanatory-sequential approach that uses principal component analysis, semi-structured interviews, and questionnaire surveys to investigate post-resettlement adaptation in 12 resettlement communities in Hangzhou, China. The empirical evidence suggests informal economic activities, spontaneous spatial transformation, hybrid governance structures, and non-institutionalized participation have contributed significantly to villagers claiming their right to resettlement. We conclude with recommendations for achieving inclusive resettlement.KEYWORDS: Inclusive resettlementthe right to resettlementinformalitylandless villagersurbanization AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to thank the editor Dr. June Wang and three anonymous referees for their valuable comments on earlier drafts.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1. According to the office of poverty alleviation and development (OPAD), the rural poverty line in 2021 is around 4,000 RMB (615 USD).2. In this context, the term state mode of production does not refer to the original concept proposed by Lefebvre and further developed by Brenner in their writings on state theory. Rather, it is used to emphasize the specific characteristics of the space that is produced, such as being instrumental, urbanized, homogenizing, and governable.3. According to the Measures for Public Notice of Land Acquisition, resettled villagers only have participation opportunities during “two notices and one registration” (liang gonggao, yi dengji): the notice of land requisition, the notice of compensation and resettlement plan, and the registration of compensation. However, such opportunities are often formalistic.4. This format is to report the Likert value mean of the variable. Prefix (SP, SO, E, P) indicates the dimension of factor analysis (see Table 2). Those without prefix indicates the results of survey questions that are not included in the final PCA results.5.

Through critical organizational analyses of eviction-related projects in Atlanta, Georgia, and Richmond, Virginia, we illustrate the data feminism approach to reimagining eviction data as a tool for tenant empowerment. We find that why, how, for whom, and with whom we collect, present, and organize eviction data is both driven by and drives the narratives, policy, and practice around eviction. Shifting the power, process, and participants of eviction data creation can facilitate tenant organizing and a rebalancing of the landlord-tenant power and information dynamic. Such a reorientation of the purpose, creation, and usage of data could promote data justice across a variety of urban policy areas.KEYWORDS: Evictiondatacase study AcknowledgmentsThank you to the reviewers, the editor Bernadette Hanlon, and participants at the Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning conference for their helpful comments.
