"What is an egalitarian city?": roundtable discussion featuring Jonathan Wolff (University of Oxford) and Avner de-Shalit (Hebrew University of Jerusalem)

In this roundtable, professors Jonathan Wolff (University of Oxford) and Avner de-Shalit (Hebrew University of Jerusalem) will discuss their work in progress, focused on the topic of urban injustices. Employing a methodological approach merging normative expertise with applied reflections, supported by data from interviews with over 180 people worldwide, Wolff and de-Shalit set out to conceptualize a city in which individuals relate to each other as equals.

Participants shall address issues connected to complex phenomena affecting present-day cities, such as spatial and social segregation, gentrification and precariousness, as well as core issues of citizenship and urban policymaking.
