Citations in the corpus

• Emerging cities of the third wave (2011, background): “the bottom of the rankings can at best be only marginally included in the third wave, and many of these cities (especially in the global South) also contain large impoverished populations that remain far outside of any wider capitalist reality (Roy, 2011).”
• The Environmentalism of the Poor revisited: : Territory and place in disconnected glocal struggles (2014, background): “For instance, in Mumbai, ‘entrepreneurs of space’ have tried to replace the slums of Dharavi with condominiums and attractive public space (Roy, 2011), with often development mafias operating in partnership with real estate capital, state actors, and the police (Weinstein, 2008).”
• A World in Emergence: Notes Toward a Resynthesis of Urban-Economic Geography for the 21st Century (2011, background): “…though burning questions regarding cities in low-wage countries—such as chronic poverty, underemployment, informality, economic dependency, and hyperurbanization—are directly and indirectly intertwined with contemporary global capitalism (see, for example, Robinson, 2002, 2011; Roy, 2009, 2011).”
• Relational Cities: Doha, Panama City, and Dubai as 21st Century EntrepÔts (2013, background): “…urban theory (Halbert and Rutherford, 2010), the need to reinvigorate comparative urban research (Robinson, 2011a, 2011b), and the need to move away from a Western bias in urban research (Grant and Nijman, 2002; Roy, 2011) that champions the formulation of “unlocated” urban theory (Robinson, 2002).”
• Urban Fortunes and Skeleton Cityscapes: Real Estate and Late Urbanization in Kigali and Addis Ababa (2017, background): “The sphere of urban property development is thus guided by a different range of institutions and ‘place entrepreneurs’ (Molotch, 1993) in contexts where the urban institutional environment is relatively highly informalized (Simone, 2004; Roy, 2011; Kusiluka, 2012; Obeng-Odoom, 2015).”
• China's Landed Urbanization: Neoliberalizing Politics, Land Commodification, and Municipal Finance in the Growth of Metropolises (2014, background): “…of analysis, and object of investigation [in urban studies] require a foundational reconceptualisation in order to remain relevant to the massive transformations of worldwide socio-spatial organization we are witnessing today” (Brenner and Schmid, 2012, page 13; see also Robinson, 2002; Roy, 2011).”
