Agata Lisiak and Elena Vacchelli (University of Greenwich) co-edited a special issue of Discover Society on urban youth and the right to the city. BCB student Karam Alhamad's essay on walking in Berlin [https://discoversociety.org/2020/04/01/on-the-frontline-walking-while-cut-in-half/] (originally submitted as an assignment for Lisiak’s All That Is Solid Melts Into Air class in Fall 2019) is featured in the special issue alongside contributions from international scholars including Jin Haritaworn, Linda McDowell, Naaz Rashid, and Sara Abbas. The authors aim at overcoming the polarity between viewing urban space as necessarily disabling or enabling for young people of various genders and draw attention to the complex dynamics in which urban belonging is negotiated through daily practices. The articles were written and are based on research conducted before the COVID-19 outbreak, and thus do not engage with the new lived realities of urban youth in a global pandemic. Yet Lisiak and Vacchelli hope and believe that the discussions presented in the collection will continue to be relevant in rethinking urban futures in the years to come.
