Spatial intersectionality and transformative justice as frameworks for equitable urban planning in divided and post-conflict cities
Abstract In post-conflict and divided cities where urban spatial injustice is reinforced by enduring divisions, the frameworks of spatial intersectionality and transformative justice hold significant potential to address inequity through urban planning. All cities can be considered divided in some way and these divisions often represent spatial injustice or inequitable access to resources and space. However, in post-conflict and divided cities these divisions may be entrenched and may transgenerationally maintain conditions of inequity and violence. This paper presents spatial intersectionality and transformative justice as frameworks for urban planning that have the potential to address inequity and divisions in all cities, but particularly in cities catergorised as divided due to violence or conflict. I propose a set of guiding questions for transformative justice informed urban planning.
Highlights Spatial intersectionality can help identify how structures of inequality restrict movement and use of cities. Applying transformative justice to urban planning can address the roots of social and structural inequity. The two frameworks are complementary and can broaden the scope of urban planning to address inequity, violence, and division.
