In response to questions about the state of Urban Political Ecology (UPE), my colleague Jenn Rice and I organized a series of four really good sessions to sus out the health of this emerging sub-disciplinary approach. The good news is that in my opinion the presenters showed without a doubt that UPE is alive and well. Here are links to the sessions for the curious:
