Research output: Contribution to journalEditorial

Abstract

This special issue examines the impact of Covid-19 pandemic on migrants' access to rights, services, resources, and spaces in cities across Europe, Asia, North America, and the Middle East. In this introduction, we first briefly situate the problematic of migrant in/exclusion in cities within the migrant urban scholarship. We then advocate for adopting the conceptual lens of urban citizenship to investigate this problematic of migrant inclusion, belonging and claim-making for, in and through the city, especially at times of crisis. After a brief discussion of the relevance of investigating impacts of crises on potential transformations of urban citizenship, we provide an extended overview of the eight articles' main themes and findings.
