Abstract: In the wake of the “urban turn”, the city-space is increasingly being imagined as mappable, griddable, and segregable, and is being territorialized into urban “enclaves”. Territorial techniques of urbanization, which Schiller and Çaglar (2018) call “city-making”, give rise to proprietorship and create imaginary border(land)s within the city. Such enclaves realign the geographies of the city, and in so doing, create an “enclavist” identity not only for those who imagine the city thus, but also for the commons in the city.
