Drawing on a qualitative case study, it identifies three primary mediators: the state apparatus, politicians, and grassroots organizations. These actors operate through a framework of mediated practices conceptualized into three functional categories: navigational modes involving advocacy and representation, relational dynamics driven by familism and clientelism, and extractive behaviors characterized by corruption and rent-seeking. The findings reveal that this everyday brokerage is not merely a stopgap response to the absence of the state but a constitutive mode of urban governance. To capture this dynamic, this study introduces the concept of ambivalent citizenship, wherein mediated practices simultaneously empower and marginalize the urban poor. This article argues that the structure of relationships between mediators and citizens, whether fragmented and plural or singular and exclusive, dictates the capacity of the marginalized to claim their rights. When grassroots organizations are active, citizens leverage navigational modes to negotiate access and hold intermediaries to account. Conversely, when mediation is monopolized by political or familial networks through relational modes, exclusion and dependency deepen further. Furthermore, predatory practices that utilize extractive modes actively erode these formal rights. By unpacking the everyday politics of social assistance distribution, this study enriches the literature on urban governance, welfare politics, and citizenship in the Global South.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148899616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In France, the national programmes for urban renewal have institutionalised demolition through strong financial incentives, reinforcing neoliberal urban competitiveness and the pursuit of social mix. This paper examines how such logics persist within contemporary renewal programmes and how local actors seek to challenge them. Based on empirical insights from the Villeneuve district in Grenoble, it analyses the tensions between national frameworks promoting demolition and local ambitions to prioritise rehabilitation, ecological responsibility and citizen participation. While political change and mobilisation enabled a partial shift away from demolition, structural dependencies – financial, institutional and ideological – continue to constrain alternatives. This article argues that moving beyond demolition-centred renewal requires a reform of national funding and evaluation frameworks, enabling practices of repair, reuse and democratic co-production. Such an approach would not only mitigate environmental and social costs but also contribute to reframing urban policy within a post-growth paradigm beyond demolition.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"180 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148595516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article addresses what sort of solidarities the fleeting relations of traders on street markets may generate. We expand Oosterlynk’s concept of place-based solidarity to explore street vendors practices in the street market as constituting two forms of solidarity following from the spatiality and temporality of the setting: unplanned solidarity that is anticipated based on shared experiences that suggest a ‘mandatory’ moral commitment to the future, but remains ambiguous, and calculated solidarity, where traders expect transactional trust out of instrumental logics. The case of Fatih Çarşamba Market (FÇM) in Istanbul, Türkiye, helps to theorise how both such solidarities follow as moral by-products of everyday interactions in a public space where agents ritualise and institutionalise or ‘make’ the ‘market’ as a place . Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and in-depth interviews with street vendors, we show that while these solidarities advance economic resources, they are moral in how they come about. The market’s temporality makes some of them unplanned, but they are not just products of casually fleeting relations.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148587162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As dignity is a complex, contested and multi-faceted concept which has been theorised across multiple disciplines, its various dimensions and their applications to urban mobility justice frameworks require gradual unpacking. In this article we focus on one dimension: the tension between externally defined notions of dignity, presented as universal criteria to be fulfilled for a ‘threshold’ of justice to be met; and a relational and situated notion of dignity, grounded in moral emotions. We understand moral emotions as emerging between people as a result of someone (in this case, transport users) being treated in particular ways. We argue that, similarly to dominant understandings of urban mobility justice, a universalist and seemingly objective definition of dignit`y risks imposing rigid framings on marginalised groups, erasing their own experiences and perspectives, and thus the possibility of them substantively shaping policy and planning decisions. A dignity framework presents an opportunity to feature the moral emotions of transport users, and particularly those who are marginalised on the basis of income, disability, gender and race/ethnicity, among others, more prominently in urban mobility justice. This is especially relevant in the context of transport modes such as urban buses, a historically under-funded and stigmatised mode of transport. Drawing on data gathered through focus group discussions and analysed inductively, we develop these ideas based on experiences of people living in and around Blackburn, an urban area in the North-West of England, UK.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"291 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148587171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, efforts to take up Singapore-linked planning approaches and urban design are uneven and contested. In this article, we reconsider Singapore’s influence in urban planning and design through a critical lens of aspirational urbanism, using Hanoi, Vietnam, as a case study. We conceptualise aspirational urbanism through three linked approaches. First, we mobilise external models not only as technical templates or policy frameworks but also as normative ideologies and symbolic claims about desirable futures, including particular ways of producing cities and lifestyles. Second, we treat aspirational urbanism as being articulated through the discourses, practices, and strategies of multiple actors, including a hybridisation of city models. Third, we note that aspirational urbanism entails conjunctions and disjunctions between the urban agendas and planning practices of the countries brought into relation. Drawing on this framework, we analyse media articles and interviews with architecture and planning professionals involved in Hanoi’s recent urban projects, alongside interviews with residents of Singapore-designed residential developments in Hanoi. We show that, despite broad enthusiasm for green and smart city agendas and claims of ‘good’ governance, references to Singapore are selectively assembled and contested through project marketing and professional narratives. In practice, uptake in Hanoi is concentrated in high-end residential enclaves rather than broader or city-wide transformations. Singapore-referencing functions as a performative gesture and legitimising trope, mobilised by Vietnam’s state planners and private developers to justify elite and privatised development and to signal Hanoi’s world-class ambitions.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148587221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To do so, this paper draws on a thematic analysis of interviews and ‘go-along’ ethnographic observations with 18 caregivers of persons with autism, spotlighting three caregivers’ narratives. Using the term ‘non/encounters’ to emphasise the importance of both encounters and non-encounters as well as their relational nature in shaping experiences of urban care, this article demonstrates ways in which co-users of urban spaces can play a role in sharing care responsibilities alongside familial caregivers. In uncovering the intangible structures of social norms and past memories that shape non/encounters beyond their immediate moment of occurrence, this article informs how urban care can be experienced and achieved. Firstly, I illustrate the role of research in constituting and facilitating caring encounters. Next, I detail caregivers’ experiences of exclusionary encounters within ableist spaces, while exploring the possibilities of care within repeated encounters. Influenced by past negative encounters, I elucidate caregivers’ desire for non-encounters to minimise experiences of exclusionary encounters. Drawing from urban studies, disability and care research, this article emphasises the importance of a disability perspective in conceptualisations of urban care. Consequently, this paper contributes to urban care literature by demonstrating the conceptual relevance of non/encounters in a non-Western context, positioning care as a shared responsibility of the urban citizenry.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148587234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
