  • Post-Revanchist Urban Policy and Bottom-Up Influence in Downtown Oshawa, Ontario by Timothy G
    The Legitimacy of ‘Compassionate Mix’: Post-Revanchist Urban Policy and Bottom-up Influence in Downtown Oshawa, Ontario by Timothy G. Wykes A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Timothy G. Wykes, June, 2020 ABSTRACT THE LEGITIMACY OF ‘COMPASSIONATE MIX’: POST-REVANCHIST URBAN POLICY AND BOTTOM-UP INFLUENCE IN DOWNTOWN OSHAWA, ONTARIO Timothy G. Wykes Advisor: University of Guelph, 2020 Dr. Mavis Morton Social mix has emerged as a consensus ‘top-down’ approach in urban policies throughout the Global North and beyond. In Ontario, Canada, the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017) has legislated for urban growth centres (UGCs), which are existing or emerging downtowns like Downtown Oshawa, to achieve ‘balance’, ‘variety’, and/or ‘diversity’ by planning “complete communities”. In this context, Downtown Oshawa is undergoing a transition that resonates with post-revanchist understandings of contemporary gentrification. Specifically, local policies pledge to uphold ‘compassionate’ commitments to vulnerable populations while enticing relatively affluent newcomers. Informed by the theoretical framework of ‘everyday’ international political economy (EIPE), and adopting a critical realist grounded theory (CRGT) methodology, this qualitative case study set upon two objectives: (1) to determine if ‘everyday’ agents in Downtown Oshawa perceive ‘compassionate mix’ policies as legitimate; and (2) to establish what, if any, influence agents’ ‘bottom-up’ responses exerted. It contributes to extant literature by foregrounding the perceived policy legitimacy of non-elite agents and examining if and how their responses influenced practices and relations downtown. The results centre interviews (n = 25) with ‘everyday’ agents, or dwellers, who regularly spent time in Downtown Oshawa, as well as over 100 hours of observational fieldwork and a review of policies, legislation, and newspaper articles.
