In this special issue, the authors offer generative tools grounded in an other-than-human standpoint inviting us to “think cities” differently. They re-examine the right to the city and a more-than-human commons; evaluate why and when species become “killable”; and rethink territoriality, attending to the ways other-than humans make and remake cities. They reconceptualize the urban as an ecological formation, entangling cultivated, feral and wild systems of governance. They explore policies that fix our views of other-than-humans, and enlist them in human conflicts, disavowing the fluidity of animal lives. They expose the ways other-than-humans suffer disastrous consequences of urban greening policies when not taken into account. Together they demonstrate why urban theorists, must take as starting point Levi-Strauss’ ([1971]. Totenism. Beacon Press, p. 89) admonition that “animals are good to think [with].”","PeriodicalId":48178,"journal":{"name":"Urban Geography","volume":"10 1","pages":"2063 - 2079"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139257737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data presented in this paper comes from China’s national and local authorities, official publications, and reports. The findings reveal a growing trend of these workers seeking jobs closer to their hometowns, causing hiring challenges in city manufacturing sectors. We also found that young workers struggle to secure employment in emerging tertiary industries due to skill gaps, while older workers confront employment barriers from policy restrictions and market biases. This study provides an analysis of the current employment situation for peasant workers in urban areas. It offers valuable insights for policymakers to create measures that foster stable and sustainable employment opportunities for this vulnerable demographic in China.","PeriodicalId":48178,"journal":{"name":"Urban Geography","volume":"46 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136347333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on two qualitative case studies in Augsburg, Germany, three different subsets of arrival infrastructures emerged as relevant to familiarization; infrastructures for information, for language learning and for social connection. The analysis shows how asylum seekers are differentially positioned towards accessing informational, language-learning and social infrastructures due the intersection of spatial, institutional and personal constraints. Public and semi-public spaces proved to be indispensable to asylum seekers’ informational, language learning and social infrastructures. The paper concludes by highlighting the ambiguity and political nature of urban arrival infrastructures: While state-provided, formal infrastructures often undermined the process of familiarization and contributed to asylum seekers’ differential access to opportunities and resources, informal, citizen-provided infrastructures were crucial in supporting asylum seekers’ needs during the periods of uncertainty.","PeriodicalId":48178,"journal":{"name":"Urban Geography","volume":"12 18","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135139449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper focuses on the regulation of street food vending and its enforcement in four cities: Bangkok, Chicago, Hanoi and Montpellier. It draws upon qualitative interviews, archival and newspaper research, and ethnography. The regulatory frameworks raise several issues, because they deny access to space and income for groups that are often underprivileged, and they neglect the roles of street food in the urban food system. We show that the actual enforcement of regulations is uneven between and within cities and between vendors. In some cases, street-level negotiations around enforcement may actually mitigate the negative effects on underprivileged vendors. Hence, the governance of street food vending appears to be more nuanced than the formal regulations that exist. We argue that the design of regulations should better consider the street vendors’ voice and their needs.KEYWORDS: North–South comparisonpublic spaceurban planninginformalityurban food system AcknowledgmentsWe would like to thank our research assistants: Kittima Leeruttanawisut in Bangkok, and Nguyen Hai Thanh as well as the FAVRI (Fruit and Vegetable Research Institute) in Hanoi.
