The essays examine mapping as both representational and generative, spanning participatory mapping in informal settlements, film-based documentation of marginalized geographies, embodied cartographies, and data-driven analysis. Organized into five sections—Representation, Critical Cartographies, Mapping Belonging, Performative Cartographies, and Data Mapping—the collection highlights methodological and layered dimensions of contemporary mapping. By interrogating traditional cartography, the book emphasizes maps' role in constructing social realities and navigating contested urban terrains. Contributors demonstrate mapping as an engagement practice that reveals hidden geographies, amplifies marginal voices, and reimagines spaces.
This volume challenges readers to reconsider mapping as an interdisciplinary practice and mode of inquiry that can transform our understanding of complex environments and social dynamics. It will be of interest to researchers and students of urban design, architecture, planning, human geography, politics, and sociology.
Gihan Karunaratne is an architect and academic whose research engages critically with urban transformation, spatial justice, and informal urbanisms, particularly in the Global South. His work explores the intersection of urban change and the lived experiences of marginalized communities, emphasizing the socio-spatial dynamics of informality and resilience. Karunaratne foregrounds often-overlooked dimensions of urban life, offering insights into the structural inequalities that shape contemporary cities. His publications with Routledge —including Informal Settlement of the Global South, Resilient Urbanism, and Displaced Urbanism—contribute significantly to scholarly discourse on architecture, urban design, and the complexities of precarity in rapidly evolving urban contexts.
