„Development projects amid unfinished, abandoned skyscrapers placed under stay orders and new construction plans across South Asia convey varied promises of progress as conservation efforts undertaken by state and non-state stakeholders, corporations, and NGOs ascribe value-making or depletion to nature and local communities. Focusing on the ambivalent geography of women and children working in the informal economy of urban Karachi, I explore the preexisting inequalities experienced under neoliberal imaginations as changing microclimates lead to frequent displacement and the slow erasure of local knowledge and practices of subsistence farming, embroidery, and sewing.“
