Abstract. With their donation appeals aid organisations procure a polarised worldview of the self and other into our everyday lives and feed on discourses of “development” and “neediness”. This study investigates how the discourse of “development” is embedded in the subjectivities of “development” professionals. By approaching the topic from a governmentality perspective, the paper illustrates how “development” is (re-)produced through internalised Western values and powerful mechanisms of self-conduct. Meanwhile, this form of self-conduct, which is related to a “good cause”, also gives rise to doubts regarding the work, as well as fragmentations and shifts of identity. On the one hand, the paper outlines various coping strategies used by development professionals to maintain a coherent narrative about the self. On the other hand, it also shows how doubts and fragmentations of identity can generate a critical distance to “development” practice, providing a space for resistant and transformative practice in the sense of Foucauldian counter-conduct.

“…One particular site emerged from the empirical data as an emblematic space that emplaced these ambivalent and apparently contradictory processes: the recently inaugurated area of Parco Dora. The subsequent section thus centres on the social practices and relationships that Parco Dora enabled and constrained within and around its area, exemplifying the spatial practices and rationalities of the "conduct of conduct" (Rose 2000;Rosol 2015) enacted in Turin's cityscape.…”

“…In the last two decades, a wealth of academic accounts have addressed the emergence and intersection of "creative", "smart", and "community-led" processes of urban renewal that aimed to restructure "anachronistic" post-industrial cities into technologically advanced, inclusive and creative global hubs attracting international tourism, talents and investments (Chatterton 2000;Binnie et al 2006;Rutland and Ayett 2008;Huxley 2013;Vanolo 2014Vanolo , 2015Rosol 2015;Glick Schiller 2015;Mould 2015). These studies show how market revitalisation, sustainability and inclusivity have been at the core of these visions of urban rebranding.…”

The following paper aims to offer a critical discussion of the unfolding politics of belonging and exclusion taking place in Turin's regenerating cityscape as a way to illuminate the paradoxes, tensions and daily negotiations of emerging forms of social and spatial restructuring in the post-industrial city. In developing this analysis, we engage with an integrated methodological approach that privileges the voices and experiences of about 30 young men, mostly of migrant origins and aged 16-21, practicing parkour in the city's public spaces. In addressing these issues, we focus on the participants' engagement with one of the symbols of Turin's (multi)cultural, community-oriented and creative renewal, the post-industrial urban park of Parco Dora in order to unpack the processes of inclusion/exclusion and the conduct of conduct (Rose 2000) enacted in the creation, management and use of the city's regenerating areas. Our discussion of the participants' ambivalent and contested practices in Turin's cityscape enabled us to address how these young men re-inscribe tensions, instabilities and fault-lines relational to the "selective story-telling" (Vanolo 2015, 2) characterizing Turin's narratives of consensual transformation, post-industrial renaissance and (multi)cultural vitality. In particular, by engaging with the participants' bodily and spatial negotiations in Turin's public spaces through the lens of counter-conduct (Foucault 2007[1978]), we highlight the significance of recognising and examining partial, but productive forms of urban contestation within contemporary, pacified scenarios of urban regeneration.
