The Intersection of Spatial Justice and Legal Frameworks
This paper advances the theoretical understanding of urban development conflicts by examining the complex interplay between legal frameworks and justice in planning processes. Through a critical analysis of the Bronx Terminal Market, we explore how conventional legal mechanisms interpret and regulate urban development conflicts. Building on Susan Fainstein’s Just City and Spatial Justice frameworks, we show how court decisions, while ensuring procedural compliance, may depart from broader principles of justice and address spatial inequities. Our findings reveal crucial discrepancies between theoretical ideals of justice and their practical implementation within existing judicial systems, contributing to ongoing debates about the effective regulation of urban processes.
