Available open access digitally under CC BY NC ND licence.At a time when the annihilation of places to live and to imagine a future is unfolding—through the violent return of war, aggressive capitalism, and biopolitical projects of territorial control—this timely book explores the layered and ongoing displacements that shape much of the world today. Bringing together case studies from both the Global North and South, the contributors examine the deeply entangled relationship between displacement and the production of urban space in our time. This perspective takes root in the everyday fragility of urban life, particularly in places marked by colonial legacies, racial capitalism, extractive economies and imperial infrastructures. It draws attention to the creative urban processes that arise in the aftermath of violence and the resourceful practices that continue to shape how cities are lived in, imagined and built.
