This special section of City & Society is the outcome of an international conference on Street Life held by the Centre for Diaspora and Transnational Studies (CDTS) at the University of Toronto from April 18–22, 2007.¹ The conference was co‐organized and hosted by the Director of CDTS, Professor Ato Quayson. Professor Quayson and I would like to extend our thanks to the participants in the conference for laying the intellectual groundwork for this publication. We would also like to thank C&S editor, Petra Kuppinger, for bringing the publication to fruition.
