THE URBANISM OF EXCEPTION: Scalar Rivalry and Political Loyalty in the Making of the Panorama Tbilisi Megaproject

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In flawed democracies, such as the Republic of Georgia, legal exceptions for urban megaprojects are becoming a standard mode of governance. While frequently analyzed as singular, top‐down sovereign acts, I argue that the imposition of such exceptions is a complex and dispersed process.
