In This Issue...
In the latest issue of IJURR we showcase a diverse range of urban research covering themes such as sex, sexuality and bio-politics; migration, stigmatization, and stratification; and crime, violence, and vigilantism. The papers explore developments in a wide range of cities drawn from Europe and the Middle East (Blackpool, Istanbul, and Timisoara), North America (New York, Seattle, and Toronto), and South and East Asia (Cairo, Manila, and Shenzhen). We encounter a series of subtle and imaginative conceptual frameworks combined with rigorous and insightful methodological strategies for the exploration of urban life: there is a political and intellectual urgency that permeates many of these contributions that we hope will find resonance in the public sphere. Many of the topics encountered in these papers are difficult to research, handling topics that require a significant degree of theoretical and methodological sophistication, including the study of prostitution, hidden dimensions to urban violence, or psychosocial topographies of fear and hostility.
