Virtual Issue on New York City

Critical Scholarship in Urban Sociology.... These classic and recent articles published in IJURR provide a flavour of the kind of critical urban scholarship associated with the journal.
This set of thirteen articles explores some of the ways in which Dutch cities are distinctive, especially in terms of the design, struggles over, and effects of urban policy. The collection is intended to enable scholars who are not specialists on the Netherlands to use Dutch cases to contribute to theorizing the interconnections between state, public policy and public participation.
A new team is editing IJURR. The new editorial team at IJURR comprises Julie-Anne Boudreau and Maria Kaika as co-editors, Simon Parker as editor of the Debates and Developments section, and Talja Blokland, who continues as editor of the book reviews. Yuri Kazepov is Acting Website Editor. The two outgoing co-editors, Roger Keil and Jeremy Seekings, will be handing over their remaining responsibilities to Julie-Anne (who joined them as co-editor in January 2010) and Maria in early 2011.
Membership of IJURR’s Editorial Board is limited to a term of eight years, so every year we say thank you to valued colleagues who are stepping down. At the end of 2009 we said thank you to Marcus Melo and Harvey Molotch, and at the end of 2010 we thanked Min Zhou and AbdouMaliq Simone. At the end of 2011 Roger Keil and Jeremy Seekings will be leaving the Board. In 2011 we welcome five new members of the Editorial Board: Elijah Anderson, Mike Raco, Raquel Rolnik, Ananya Roy and Fulong Wu.
We are delighted to announce that all back issues of IJURR are available online back to Volume 1.
