It investigates the construction and impact of environmental markets, digital currencies, and resource extraction, as well as the role of intermediaries and knowledge infrastructures in these processes. The journal also explores themes of precarity, housing, and labor, particularly in relation to migrant and marginalized populations, and analyzes urban development and global city networks.
