Who belongs to a city? Who is Othered? Who is facing bodily harm, stigmatization, exclusion, separation? Are there others (e.g., refugees or parolees) who hold precarious rights to stay in a city? Importantly, what is the effect of jails and the criminal justice system on cities and their residents? This article addresses the effects of modern Enlightenment ideas of punishment and the materiality of the prison industrial complex in everyday city life. Furthermore, it asks those who teach political and public philosophy to consider how the legacy of slavery, the panopticon and carceral (in)visibility, and race has bearing on the abstract rights-bearing subject.
