Decolonising feminist explorations of urban futures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
How do decolonial feminist urban imaginaries of urban futures begin to interrogate twenty-first century urban life?The urban futures signaled in this special issue highlight three dimensions of urban imaginaries.The first connects the privatization and commodification of urban infrastructures to state-based and capitalist discursive efforts to make the urban.The second concerns temporal convergences of past, present and future in visions of the urban that reproduce the recursive logics of coloniality by re-mapping the landscapes of urban inequality and dispossession through encounters with sedimentations of colonial and neocolonial formations.Third, authors take up the everyday as a site of struggle through which women's negotiations and placemaking practices offer alternative urban imaginaries.These articles are based on papers given at the 2019 "Feminist Explorations of Urban Futures" conference organized by the transnational feminist research project, "Urbanization and Gender in the Global South: A Transformative Knowledge Network" (GenUrb).

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
