Faranak Miraftab is professor of Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Her work seeks to understand the global and local development processes and contingencies involved in the formation of the city and citizens' struggle to access urban space and socio economic resources. Her inter-disciplinary work explores three interconnected themes: a) neoliberal governance and the ways in which the state-society relations are managed and governed; b) grassroots mobilizations and the ways in which they claim right to urban livelihood and resources; and c) transnational and trans-local practices that shape globalization from below. She has taught and researched in several countries including Chile, Mexico, Canada, Australia, South Africa, and the United States. Her most recent research project concerns transnational networks of care and work that make for the development of the heartland US. With Victoria Beard and Chris Silver she is co-editor of Planning and Decentralization: Contested Spaces for Public Action in the Global South (2008) New York: Routledge. With Neema Kudva she is co-editor of Cities of the Global South Reader (2013) New York: Routledge. Ken Salo is lecturer and the community development coordinator at the Department of Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He teaches and conducts research in the areas of environmental justice, environmental racism, law and international environmental policy, global justice movements, international human rights, food security, legal cultures in postcolonial societies and international development and planning. More specifically he is closely connected with the social movements and grassroots groups that mobilize against urban injustices in the US and in South Africa. These include Anti-Eviction campaign in Chicago and in Western Cape as well as justice media project, among others. He is author of "Contested Legalities in the Production of Post-apartheid South Africa's Privatizing Seafood Fishery." African Studies Quarterly, Vol 9, no 4 Fall 2007. David Wilson is professor of geography at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is currently investigating projects pivoting around the political economy of the U.S. city. Specific projects examine the politics of urban growth regimes in Midwest cities, the politics of competing discursive formations that generate gentrified neighborhoods and poverty communities, and the racializing of the contemporary urban issues of crime and city growth. He is author of Cities and Race: the New American Black Ghetto (2007) London: Routledge Inventing Black-On-Black Violence: Discourse, Space Representation (2005) Syracuse: Syracuse University. At the moment, he serves on the editorial boards of Urban Geography, Professional Geographer, Social and Cultural Geography, Syracuse University Press (Society, Space, and Place Book Series), Inter-Cultural Studies, the International Encyclopedia of Human Geography project and Acme: International Journal for Critical Geography.
