Looking comparatively at displacement and resistance to gentrification in Latin American cities
Taking the articles in this special issue as a starting point, this commentary makes an intervention in the debate surrounding postcolonialism, particularism, abstraction and theorisation. The author argues that critical urban studies can benefit from the comparative turn while still maintaining a theoretical compass with the ultimate aim to overcome urban injustices across the world. Indeed, critical comparative urban work, as displayed by the editors and authors of this special issue, can be the key to circulating, translating and adopting debates on urban justice across different geographical contexts.
