Counterfactual Road Networks: A Method for Examining Social and Spatial Division in Road Networks
Racism, discriminatory practices, institutional bias, and systematic exclusion can take lasting physical form in the built environment. There has been growing attention to the long-term consequences of housing policies and practices on social and economic outcomes, including residential segregation, but comparatively less attention to other aspects of the built environment, such as road networks and spatial (dis)connectivity. In this article, the…

Spatial dynamics of protest: Themes and trajectories
In this article, I discuss some ongoing and emerging debates on spatial dynamics of protest and examine different approaches in studying spaces of protest. With a thematic approach, I first discuss studies that engage with space from a bird's eye view perspective. These studies generally focus on relational dynamics of space and examine how socioeconomic, political, and cultural elements of spatially bounded entities provide spatial contexts for …
Urban Borderlines: Negotiating Spatial, Social, and Symbolic Boundaries in Urban Contexts
Sociological research has productively engaged with boundary processes in urban contexts, but few studies explore the relation between space and social and symbolic boundaries. Based on fieldwork in Tehran, Iran, and building on literature on boundary processes, I incorporate a spatial approach into the discussion of social and symbolic boundaries. The focus is on city-level public spaces that function beyond neighborhoods and draw people from ou…
Metropolitan Networks: A Socio-spatial Analysis of Social Ties in Tehran
Previous research shows that residents of metropolitan areas tend to have social ties outside their neighborhoods, but ties' locations and what they indicate in terms of social relations and urban structure are not sufficiently studied. Using survey data and interviews collected in Tehran, Iran, I examine the level of propinquity of strong social ties. Measuring the geographical distance and relative orientation between participants and their tie…
The Politics of Veiling in Iran and the Nonreligious Left in the Early 1980s
Scholarly works and public narratives dealing with the mandating of the veil in Iran in the aftermath of the 1979 revolution often focus on the coercive aspects of the process and emphasize the role of religious groups consolidating power. This article takes a closer look at how nonreligious leftist groups perceived and participated in the process. By revisiting the publications of seven prominent secular left-wing groups, this article discusses …
