Description:
This session brings together papers that explore systems which produce spatial inequality and how those inequalities might impact, or reproduce, existing inequalities. With a particular interest in knowledge production, these papers explore systems that contribute uneven geographies of open or obfuscated data, hidden data related to property such as ground rent and racial covenants, to the production of environmental models based on citizen science projects. A critical perspective on such phenomenon might engage in ideas of strategic positivism (Wyly 2009; 2011), confronting the production of data and knowledge that are harmful. Instead these papers ask: how might we create liberatory knowledge and just futures by analyzing spatial data in new or radical ways.
