城市地理学越来越把南方城市作为城市理论发展的重要地点。我们建立了这个更广泛的运动和最近的学术研究，继续向南方城市、学者和来自南方的思想开放城市地理学。在这里，我们借鉴了指导和成为来自全球南方的学生的经验。我们思考了南方作为一个任期和政治联盟的战略重要性，以及这样做的一些局限性；我们希望未来不再需要这个词。然后，我们思考批判性分析的作用，特别是社会政治学术，并对在南方背景下进行此类工作的困难进行观察。我们努力创造并为城市地理学做出贡献，严谨地从任何地方发展思想，并注意到学院内外知识政治的持续重要性。
ABSTRACT Urban geography has increasingly considered southern cities as important locations from which to develop urban theory. We build this wider movement and recent scholarship to continue opening urban geography to southern cities, scholars and ideas generated from the south. Here, we draw on the experiences of mentoring and being students from the global south. We think through the strategic importance of the south as a term and a political alliance, as well as some limitations of doing so; we hope for a future in which the term is needed less. We then think through the role of critical analysis and particularly socio-political scholarship and make observations about the difficulties of doing such work in southern contexts. We strive to create and contribute to an urban geography that rigorously develops ideas from anywhere and is mindful of the ongoing significance of the politics of knowledge in and outside the academy.
