Animals play a role in producing and transforming urban inequalities. For instance, security dogs have been trained to detect threatening individuals on the basis of classed and raced markers. Rats thrive in low-income areas with decaying sanitation infrastructure. Against this background, the EU-funded ANIMAPOLIS project will answer the question: How do animals interactions with humans and infrastructures co-produce the unequal distribution of risks and resources across urban spaces and populations? More concretely, through what mechanisms might security dogs co-produce practices of racial profiling, or distributions of rats and rodenticides affect public health outcomes? The project will develop a two-way qualitative comparison between different urban contexts and between different animals, drawing on multispecies ethnographies in Amsterdam and Rio de Janeiro.
