Abstract
Cities are not neutral sites in which people enter. They are not
only physically built but are perceived, narrated, interpreted and
imbued with power relations (Massey/Jess 1995). People experience
places with their specific socio-spatial relations depending on
their positionalities, including class, race/ethnicity, gender and
religion. Spatial organization is integral to the production of
social relations and power relations and not merely its result
(Massey 1994).
This panel explores how individuals and groups make, imagine and
enlive cities and the multiple places that constitute them, and
how social relations are linked to spatial organizations, but also
how places are negotiated and contested, demanding makeshifts and
improvisations. We focus on the city=E2=80=99s recently arrived dwe=
llers
(Saunders 2010) and residents newly claiming their urban
citizenship (Holston 2008).

We welcome contributions on urban placemaking practices,
including the socio production of places as well as their
socio-material aspects, such as arrival infrastructure. Topics may
include, e.g. the transformations of urban spaces and existing
power relations; embodied/sensory phenomena (Pink 2008;
Sen/Silverman 2013); or forms of resistance (Gupta/Ferguson 1997;
Certeau 1984, Massey 1994). At the same time we encourage
contributors to explore the larger political and economic local
and global contexts, by addressing e.g. questions concerning the
right to placemaking.
