Is democracy spatial? How are the physical aspects of our cities,
houses, streets, and public spaces?the borders, the neighborhoods, the
monuments?bearers of our values? In a world of intensifying geo-economic
integration, extreme financial and geopolitical volatility, deepening
environmental crises, and a dramatic new wave of popular protest against
both authoritarian government and capitalist speculation, cities have
become leading sites for new claims on state power and new formations of
political subjectivity. This volume brings together perspectives from
history, sociology, art, political theory, planning, law, and design
practice to explore the urban spaces of the political. A selection of
contemporary photography from around the world offers a visual refl
ection of this timely investigation.
