Bridging these perspectives enhances theoretical understanding and supports locally grounded initiatives for redistribution and recognition. Based on a case study of a stigmatized, low-income commune in Santiago de Chile—using semi-structured interviews and documentary analysis—we examine how neighborhood experience, collective memory, and identity interact to shape material and symbolic understandings of territory. The findings reveal fragmented urban identities and intersecting demands for redistribution (infrastructure, services, security) and recognition (solidarity, community agency, historical memory), challenging dominant portrayals of these areas as merely poor and dangerous. By connecting critical traditions in urban studies, this article deepens our understanding of urban identity in marginalized spaces and contributes to efforts to advance justice through localized, context-sensitive, redistributive and recognition-based actions.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":8241,"journal":{"name":"Antipode","volume":"58 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146129794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moving beyond geopolitical reasonings and historical analogies, it locates this relationship within a dynamic space of <i>homological correspondence</i>, positioning Israel as its <i>frontier</i>. This space refers to a historicized relationship binding Israel and global centers through a shared infrapolitical plane underwriting colonial-capitalist modernity. The framing precludes exceptionalizing Palestine/Israel while carving out space attentive to political continuities, expansions, and frictions. Reflecting on center-frontier relations and engaging notions of exception, (in)security, and political violence across political geography, critical security studies, and settler colonial studies, the article reveals two interrelated movements encapsulated in the wave metaphor: one locating Israel as a wave-edge of intensification and expansion—colonial, territorial, economic, and military—which, second, constantly reverberates back into global centers realigning them to its forces.

British officials believed the patrols conditioned local inhabitants, who were often hostile, to the sight of Westerners and motorised transport. The exertion of modern technology was an act of dominance over “unexplored” space which projected imperial power and reordered social and ecological relations in a way that would assist the frontier movement.

Focusing on Ahmedabad, India's most segregated city, it shows how segregation shifted after the 2002 pogrom from orchestrated riots to technical procedures of urban development. Based on 19 months of ethnographic research (2017–2021), the paper compares two sites: Juhapura, where riot-driven displacement, strategic neglect, and legal restrictions converged with informal property markets to entrench segregation; and Ganeshnagar, a resettlement colony where displacement and bureaucratic violence reproduced segregation under Modi's post-2002 agenda. While both reveal how development conceals communal violence, Ganeshnagar also exposed the order's fragility: its marginality enabled fleeting Hindu–Muslim alliances that unsettled Ahmedabad's spatial order. The paper argues that communal capitalism makes the production of segregation and Muslim marginality central to development, yet also generates openings where solidarities challenge its hegemony.</p>","PeriodicalId":8241,"journal":{"name":"Antipode","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/anti.70130","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146091512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
