ABSTRACT The ‘Stars’ are series of suburban settlements adjacent to the border with the occupied West-Bank which illustrate the increasing privatisation of the Israeli settlement mechanism. Unlike earlier examples, which were dictated by pioneer ideology or individualistic attempts to achieve better living standards, during the 1990s the state adopted a supply-side territorial policy, which tried to ensure the continuation of its geopolitical project by securing the economic feasibility of the private sector. Analysing the development of the ‘Stars’, this paper sheds light on the privatisation and commodification of the Israeli settlement mechanism and with it the transformation of its spatial product.

ABSTRACT To help tackle the spread of COVID-19 a range of surveillance technologies – smartphone apps, facial recognition and thermal cameras, biometric wearables, smart helmets, drones, and predictive analytics – have been rapidly developed and deployed. Used for contact tracing, quarantine enforcement, travel permission, social distancing/movement monitoring, and symptom tracking, their rushed rollout has been justified by the argument that they are vital to suppressing the virus, and civil liberties have to be sacrificed for public health. I challenge these contentions, questioning the technical and practical efficacy of surveillance technologies, and examining their implications for civil liberties, governmentality, surveillance capitalism, and public health.

ABSTRACT In the last few years the number of local consultations has increased considerably in Catalonia. This formula was extended, from 2014 onwards, not only due to the knock-on effect of the self-determination referendums but also in order to resolve contentious issues related to the symbolic and urban management of public spaces. In this article we present the result of the analysis of four case studies, from which we can conclude that the consultations, in some cases, have served as an instrument for resolving internal conflicts between parties and avoiding electoral costs in the face of certain decisions.

ABSTRACT On a number of fronts, quieter registers of power – manipulation, dissimulation, inducement and displaced forms of authority – have assumed greater significance today, made possible by the topological reach into peoples’ everyday lives. This should exercise us, not least because you can miss these kinds of powerful practices as they do not always appear as such. When the ‘power to’ secure or influence outcomes may just as easily turn into the ‘power over’ others, we should at the very least be troubled, if not straightforwardly provoked.

ABSTRACT The role of culture in the reinvention of the post-industrial city has long fascinated urban scholars. Ronan Paddison made contributions to this debate at a time when culture had become something of a strategic orthodoxy. This paper reflects upon the emergence of the so-called creative city and its relationship to broader processes of commodification. It contends that this creativity discourse embellished a partial version of the city as a symbolic (and latterly digital) entity and, in this context, reflects upon Paddison’s broader contribution to our understanding of the city as a multifaceted arena in which social injustice so often thrives.

ABSTRACT This paper opens a special issue (SI) commemorating the contributions of Ronan Paddison (1945–2019), founder and original Editor-in-Chief of Space and Polity. It outlines Paddison’s academic accomplishments before introducing the pieces that follow. It narrates Paddison as scholar, teacher, theorist and critic based on reading a student geographical magazine, the Drumlin, ‘published’ annually 1955–2009. This medium allows glimpses of Paddison as a ‘radical geographer’ nourishing eclectic versions of political and urban geography. The paper raises signposts for many of the concerns, to do with Paddison’s conceptualizing, practising and instructing about ‘space and polity’, covered by the SI as a whole.

ABSTRACT Although the bulk of Ronan Paddison’s work focussed on other areas, he also worked on electoral and fiscal geographies. The former book-ended his career. Some of his first published papers were on electoral matters, as was some of the last work he did. And his long-standing focus on urban politics led to an ongoing interest in funding the local state. What tied this work into the wider corpus of Ronan’s activities was an interest in power. In this short paper, I take a look at some of his contributions in both areas.

ABSTRACT Ronan Paddison’s work on urban public space and the post-political moved beyond the polarization that marks much of the ongoing debate around post-politics. This article briefly delineates three key propositions in Paddison’s engagement with the post-political: a critical dialogical reading of the thesis; a call for nuanced empirical engagement; and an ability to draw from deep personal engagement with local urban politics. Paddison’s propositions shape a generative engagement that has prefigured work that added geographical and political nuance to the post-political debate. They also provide critical pathways to illuminate how (urban) post-politicization and (re-)politicization intersect and shape one another.
