Jury comment:
By introducing the concept of financialization into the analysis of urban production, this dense but impeccably clear article takes a fresh look at the relationship between the public and private spheres. It successfully contributes to the unveiling of processes that have long remained invisible, despite their active role in reshaping the power relations that govern the production of metropolitan spaces. The fact that it was written by a doctoral student makes it even more promising.
