THE COSMOPOLITICS OF CATS AND WILDLIFE ON CAPE TOWN'S URBAN EDGE

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Free‐ranging cats are widely tolerated in cities, and animal welfare organizations increasingly allow for ‘trap, neuter and release’ (TNR) of unowned cats. We show, using the example of a university campus adjacent to a national park in a large metropole, that this has implications for cosmopolitics over biodiversity on the urban edge.

open access: yesCriminology &Public Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Research summary A long‐standing critique of place‐based crime prevention interventions has been that any reductions in crime are often short‐lived.
