Asher Ghertner is a Lecturer in Human Geography in the Department of Geography and Environment at the London School of Economics. He recently completed his PhD in the Energy and Resources Group at the University of California, Berkeley, where he was trained in urban geography, political ecology, and development studies. His research explores urban informality and governance, aesthetic politics, and the epistemology of rule. He is currently revising his dissertation into a book, tentatively titled Rule by Aesthetics. Based on two years of ethnographic fieldwork and legal research in Delhi, the book will examine how slum demolitions are discursively justified and given meaning, legally enacted, and experienced by slum residents. His recent articles have appeared in Economy and Society and Economic and Political Weekly. Michael Goldman is a McKnight Presidential Fellow and Professor of Sociology and Global Studies at the University of Minnesota, in Minneapolis, USA. His latest book, based on a decade-long ethnography of the World Bank, is entitled Imperial Nature: the World Bank and struggles for social justice in the age of globalization (Yale University Press, 2005; Orient Longman India, 2006; Kyoto University Press, 2008 [in Japanese]). He is currently working on a project funded by the American Institute for Indian Studies, “Bangalore: The Making of a World City,” focusing on the transformations of govern- ment and citizenship taking place under liberalization. Roy_fbetw.indd viii Roy_fbetw.indd viii 5/7/2011 3:56:49 PM 5/7/2011 3:56:49 PM Notes on Contributors ix Chad Haines is currently on the Religious Studies faculty and is a researcher with the Center for the Study of Religion and Conflict at Arizona State University. Previously, he was a faculty member in Anthropology at American University in Cairo and taught at Duke University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He is the author of Nation, Territory, and Globalization in Pakistan: a view from the margins (Routledge, 2011), as well as numerous articles on northern Pakistan. He is currently working on a new manuscript, Being Muslim, Being Global: Dubai, Islamabad, and Cairo. Lisa Hoffman was trained as a cultural anthropologist and is an Associate Professor in Urban Studies at University of Washington Tacoma. Her work has examined new techniques of governing, subject formation, and questions of neoliberalism in contemporary China. She has been particularly interested in the rise of professionalism and the links between “human capital” development and urban transformation, focusing on Dalian, a major port city in the northeast. Her recent book, titled Patriotic Professionalism: talent in the global Chinese city, examines the rise of a professional middle class in urban China as the country has moved from the planned system and adopted socialist market practices. The book argues that young college graduates who find jobs on their own rather than receive assignments from the state express and embody “patriotic professionalism.” This social form combines individualized career planning and calculative choice with an ethic of state- strengthening and love for the nation, challenging more standard analyses of neoliberalism, urban change, and subjectivity. Her more recent work has examined governmental rationalities of environmental city-building in China and sustainability as a governmental problem. Other publications include “Autonomous choices and patriotic professionalism: on governmentality in late-socialist China,” Economy and Society 2006, 34(4); and “Enterprising cities and citizens: the re-figuring of urban spaces and the making of post-Mao professionals,” Provincial China, 2003, 8(1). Glen Lowry is Associate Professor of Cultural & Critical Studies, Faculty of Community & Culture, at Emily Carr University of Art + Design. He is a specialist in contemporary culture and poetics, and has published articles on contemporary Canadian literature, photography, film, and television. His recent work looks at practice-based (creative-critical) collaborations between artists and academics in the context of global urbanization. A senior research in Emily Carr’s Social and Interactive Media (SIM) Research Centre (funded by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada) and Chair of Online Learning, Lowry’s work is also engaged with building new media platforms capable of connecting scholars, artists, and audiences across cultural and geographic distances. Current projects include Maraya, a large- scale, international public art initiative focused on urban waterfront sites in Roy_fbetw.indd ix Roy_fbetw.indd ix 5/7/2011 3:56:49 PM 5/7/2011 3:56:49 PM x Notes on Contributors Vancouver and Dubai, and linking artist, writers, and academics in Canada and the UAE. With Ashok Mathur, he has recently completed a qualitative study of the Outcomes and Impacts of Canada’s Social Sciences and Humanities Research/Creations in Fine Arts grants pilot program. Since 2002, Lowry has edited West Coast Line. In 2009, he published Pacific Avenue, a book of poems. Shannon May is a PhD candidate in the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley. She has conducted fieldwork throughout China and in sub-Saharan Africa. Her work engages anthropo- logical problems of governance, development, citizenship, community, and political ecology as constituted in everyday practice. She is currently writing her dissertation on the convergence of ecological and market rationalities in a project to “modernize” rural China, titled Practices of Ecological Citizenship: global dreams for a Chinese village. Eugene McCann is Associate Professor, Department of Geography, at Simon Fraser University. He is an urban geographer with interests in urban politics, policy-making, and the relationships between urbanization and globalization. His current research explores how cities act globally through inter-urban policy mobilities – the processes of teaching, learning, and trans- ferring policy knowledge among cities.

His book Collective Action and Urban Poverty Alleviation: community organizations and the struggle for shelter in Manila was published by Ashgate Publishers in 2007. Helen F. Siu is Professor of Anthropology at Yale University. Since the 1970s, she has conducted historical and ethnographic fieldwork in South China, examining socialist transformations and the reach of the state, the revival of market towns, rituals, marriage practices, community festivals, and the reworking of the rural–urban divide in the post-reform era. Since 1997, she has worked on the “sinking and shrinking” generation of Hong Kongers who use urban space and global charisma to engage with China. Her publications and co-edited volumes include Mao’s Harvest: voices of China’s new generation (Oxford University Press, 1983); Furrows: peasants, intellectuals, and the state (Stanford University Press, 1990); Down to Earth: the territorial bond in South China (Stanford University Press, 1995); Agents and Victims in South China: accomplices in rural revolution (Yale University Press, 1989); Empire at the Margins: culture, ethnicity and frontier in early modern China (University of California Press, 2006); SARS: reception and interpretation in three Chinese Cities (Routledge, 2007); and Hong Kong Mobile: making a global population (Hong Kong University Press, Roy_fbetw.indd xi Roy_fbetw.indd xi 5/7/2011 3:56:49 PM 5/7/2011 3:56:49 PM xii Notes on Contributors 2008).

Roy_fbetw.indd xii Roy_fbetw.indd xii 5/7/2011 3:56:49 PM 5/7/2011 3:56:49 PM Series Editors’ Preface The Wiley-Blackwell Studies in Urban and Social Change series is published in association with the International Journal of Urban and Regional Research. It aims to advance theoretical debates and empirical analyses stimulated by changes in the fortunes of cities and regions across the world. Among topics taken up in past volumes and welcomed for future submissions are: ● Connections between economic restructuring and urban change ● Urban divisions, difference, and diversity ● Convergence and divergence among regions of east and west, north, and south ● Urban and environmental movements ● International migration and capital flows ● Trends in urban political economy ● Patterns of urban-based consumption The series is explicitly interdisciplinary; the editors judge books by their contribution to intellectual solutions rather than according to disciplinary origin. Proposals may be submitted to members of the series Editorial Committee, and further information about the series can be found at www.suscbookseries.com Jenny Robinson Neil Brenner Matthew Gandy Patrick Le Galès Chris Pickvance Ananya Roy Roy_fspre.indd xiii Roy_fspre.indd xiii 4/29/2011 12:35:30 AM 4/29/2011 12:35:30 AM Preface and Acknowledgments This book grew out of our particular interests in the field of global metropolitan studies. It has also emerged from our shared sense that dominant conceptual frameworks and methodologies in this field do not capture the diversity of urban dreams, projects, and practices that are constitutive of cities in emerging world regions. We therefore seek to articulate a new ethnographic turn in global metropolitan studies. For us, such an orientation hinges on the idea of “worlding.” We see the worlding city as a milieu of intervention, a source of ambitious visions, and of speculative experiments that have different possibilities of success and fail- ure. We hold that such experiments cannot be conceptually reduced to instantiations of universal logics of capitalism or postcolonialism. They must be understood as worlding practices, those that pursue world recog- nition in the midst of inter-city rivalry and globalized contingency. We therefore focus on the urban as a milieu that is in constant formation, one shaped by the multitudinous ongoing activities that by wedding dream and technique, form the art of being global. Inherently unstable, inevita- bly subject to intense contestation, and always incomplete, worlding is the art of being global. But also at stake in this book is how cities are worlded in geographies of knowledge. By insisting upon a shift away from the concepts of world cities and world systems to that of worlding practices, we seek to intervene in the ways in which global metropolitan studies “worlds” Asia. Impossibly heterogeneous, the idea of Asia functions in this book as much more than a geo-political location. While massive urban problems prevail in the region, “Asia” is increasingly invoked as the testing ground for successful models of economic growth, rational planning, and ecological sustainability. Inter- Asian comparisons and contrasts have become common practices in many urban initiatives to attain “world-class” status. Thus, in this book, Asia is a geographic location, a space of urban innovations, as well as an emergent symbol for urban renovations that have global applicability. But also in this book we pay attention to the constant experimentation with social formations, Roy_fpref.indd xv Roy_fpref.indd xv 4/29/2011 12:32:26 AM 4/29/2011 12:32:26 AM Preface and Acknowledgments xvi to the politics of solidarity that seeks to reformulate the urban question and domesticate the dream of Asian futures. The book is organized around the themes of modeling, inter-referencing practices, and new solidarities. In somewhat unusual fashion, we have cho- sen to divide our editorial essays into an introduction and conclusion. Aihwa Ong’s opening essay introduces the book and its key concept of “worlding” as situated practice and experimentation. She makes the case for viewing the city as a problem-space for which a range of solutions are created out of disparate local and circulating elements. Ananya Roy’s concluding essay returns to the theme of “worlding,” but examines how cities of the global South have been “worlded” in the discourses and imaginaries of metropoli- tan studies. Building on Ong’s critique of urban political economy and postcolonial analysis, Roy seeks to shift the terrain of the political away from the standard icons of global capital and subaltern agency to the “worlding city” as both a site of emergence and as a mass dream. Together, the two editorial essays highlight different theoretical approaches to the common question of the “worlding city.” We hope that such theoretical multiplicity makes visible the productive nature of the concept of “worlding” and the significance of locating the study of “worlding cities” in the context of inter- Asian urbanism. We owe considerable thanks to the scholars who have contributed essays to this edited volume. It is their work that has led us to the conceptual frameworks that anchor this book. Hailing from different fields and generations, they present new research on the social, political, material, and symbolic interconnections that are proliferating between different Asian metropolises. Their work has challenged us as editors to address methodo- logical approaches to global metropolitan studies in an era of Asian emergence. It has led us to be attentive to diverse conceptual and research questions and to thereby provide an open-ended account of experiments and possibilities, rather than promote a single unifying framework. This volume emerged from an interdisciplinary workshop we organized for the “Inter-Asian Connections” conference that was convened by the Social Science Research Council in February 2008. We had the opportunity to hold a two-day workshop, quite appropriately located at a site that features prominently in this book: Dubai. We thank the SSRC for both the initial inspiration for this endeavor and for its generous funding of our workshop. At the forum, Michael M. Fischer and Abdoumaliq Simone made astute comments that added to our lively exchange on contemporary metropolitan experiences in the Asian region. We are pleased to be a part of Wiley-Blackwell’s Studies in Urban and Social Change series. We are grateful to two editors-in-chief of the series, Neil Brenner and Jennifer Robinson, for their interest in our project. The various chapters of the book have benefited from extensive comments provided by Roy_fpref.indd xvi Roy_fpref.indd xvi 4/29/2011 12:32:26 AM 4/29/2011 12:32:26 AM
