“…There is still a limited but growing body of empirical studies drawing on the notion of governmentality in various sub-fields of geography, focusing generally on the territoriality and spatiality of governmental rationalities and technologies (see for a comprehensive review Huxley, 2008;Rose-Redwood, 2006). Urban scholars have specifically addressed topics such as: inner-city regeneration and urban renaissance (Füller & Marquardt, 2010;Imrie & Raco, 2003;Raco & Imrie, 2000); the reconfiguration of the welfare state and community involvement in public service provision and municipal policies (Blakeley, 2010;Rutland & Aylett, 2008;Rutherford, 2006;Swyngedouw, 2005;Tooke, 2003); the governing of urban space through regulatory practices and mapping (Blomley & Sommers, 1999;Ruppert, 2006); sexual citizenship (Cooper, 2006); housing and homelessness (Flint, 2003;McKee, 2008;Murdoch, 2000;Willse, 2010); local (economic) governance and policy (Dikeç, 2007;MacKinnon, 2000;Schipper, 2013;Uitermark, 2005); feminist critiques of planning (Huxley, 2002); and a critique of the communicative planning ideal (e.g., Flyvbjerg & Richardson, 2002;Hobson, 2009;Huxley, 2000;Huxley & Yiftachel, 2000;Pløger, 2001).…”
