Abstract:
The special issue contributes to the exploration of transversal solidarities counterpoised to exhausted neoliberalism and xenophobic populism. It tracks contours of a multifarious countermovement, traversing race, class, and gender, driven by reimaginings of the common and the renewal of democracy. The emphasis is on the understanding of contending urban justice movements, welcoming communities and their liaisons in a multiscale (local, national, transnational) perspective. Exploring examples of social movements and forms of mobilisation in different contexts, the overarching aim is to retrieve options for transversal solidarities transcending identities while focusing on commonalities.
