Recently, however, the promises of smart cities have been gradually supplanted by recognition of their inherent inequalities, and scholars are increasingly working to envision alternative smart cities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInformed by these pressing challenges, \u003ci\u003eDigital (In)Justice in the Smart City\u003c\/i\u003e foregrounds discussions of how we should think of and work towards urban digital justice in the smart city. It provides a deep exploration of the sources of injustice that percolate throughout a range of sociotechnical assemblages, and it questions whether working towards more just, sustainable, liveable, and egalitarian cities requires that we look beyond the limitations of \"smartness\" altogether. The book grapples with how geographies impact smart city visions and roll-outs, on the one hand, and how (unjust) geographies are produced in smart pursuits, on the other. Ultimately, \u003ci\u003eDigital (In)Justice in the Smart City\u003c\/i\u003e envisions alternative cities – smart or merely digital – and outlines the sorts of roles that the commons, utopia, and the law might take on in our conceptions and realizations of better cities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Figures\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Towards Urban Digital Justice: The Smart City as an Empty Signifier\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart One: Challenging the Foundations of Smart\u003cbr\u003eA Dialogue with Stephen Graham\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Who Is Telling the Smart City Story?
