Abstract

This report synthesises the analysis of research on “Spatial Inequalities in Times of Urban Transitions” that was executed from December 2017 to September 2019 in 4 cities in Uganda and Somaliland. Based on a systemic view of land markets and integrated with a political settlement analysis it is meant to help in understanding and eventually overcoming constraints to the ways that land markets can contribute to spatial justice. The report draws on an understanding of political settlements as a way of understanding how varieties of clientelism through informal interfaces manifest themselves in cities and how the materialities and resources of cities shape and afford possibilities for clientelism (Goodfellow, 2017)
