In this chapter, we shed light on the question of how the different strands of UPE understand the ‘urban’: the traditional Marxist UPE as metabolic process shaped by power and the more recent postcolonial perspectives as pluralised socio–natures that act as arenas for the everyday political. The chapter concludes with a brief summary and a call for a Political Ecology across the urban/rural divide that could engage more systematically in the question where the urban is located, as well as which and how processes of production of socio–nature are specific to the urban.
