Decolonial Cities Collective’s first Dialogue event was a virtual conversation between Heather Dorries (University of Toronto) and Monika Streule (LSE), and Bobby Farnan (University of York) and Dena Qaddumi (LSE). In this dialogue, we discuss how centring the ‘decolonial city’ can pluralise conceptions of justice and the ‘good city’. In particular, we ask:
- How do decolonial approaches shift conceptions of the ‘good city’?
- How do distributive, procedural, and recognition justice frameworks inform and limit the horizon of the decolonial city?
- How does centring decoloniality pluralise conceptions of justice in the city through registers such as abolition, care, indigeneity, and ecology?
