The collection is bookended by two additional texts by Scott Brown, a foreword and an afterword, addressing specifically the act of writing about architecture.

Summary:
Slavs and Tatars is a multi-artists' collective which is fascinated by the area east of the former Berlin Wall and west of the Great Wall of China. Through their often-playful art they delve into the riches of this cultural crossroads, the romantic sphere of influence between Slavs, Caucasians, and Central Asians. Here they plunge into the fables and myths of the mountainous Caucasus region: the first part addresses the complexity of languages and identities on the fault line of Eurasia, and the second part, titled Steppe by Steppe, explores the region's seemingly reactionary approaches to romance. Whether they're looking at art, fashion, lifestyle or science, Slavs and Tatars bring a new point of view to the table.

Summary:
Tools for the Design Revolution critically examines the history and influences on current designs trends, giving practical guidelines and tools for creating sustainable design processes into the future. The 'tools' are strategies for sustainable design informed by the challenges of social, cultural and ecological change. Finding new design ideas in terms of concept and product is becoming more and more important. In the past, design was dictated by the professional minority within narrow confines. In the future, design will be an expression of the collective, finding expression and meaning within a shared identity, social trends and popular culture and terms like "cradle to cradle" or "open source design" refer to a changing understanding of the creative process.

En quelques heures, l’édifice s’est métamorphosé en un monument mondial composé d’images et de tweets, de discours et de stories Instagram. Chacun a raconté sa cathédrale, a exprimé sa tristesse. Ce livre s’attache à explorer cette émotion collective, en envisageant la construction médiatique de l’incendie de la cathédrale comme fait social, culturel et d’actualité suscitant passions et angoisses – de la nostalgie du roman national à la peur du terrorisme. Bref, une visite guidée du dédale médiatique, citoyen et individuel dans lequel s’est forgée « l’émotion Notre-Dame ».

Summary:
This book serves as a critical review of Social Urbanism, defined as a socio-political and practical approach to urban globalisation, deriving from a planning strategy and portfolio of built projects that seek to alleviate the social consequences of urbanisation. It emphasises both the political processes and the urbanism projects that simultaneously consider socio-economic and ecological components of space, and which highlight a greater focus on social sustainability. In a context in which geography defines space and culture, and through challenges of a global magnitude, we are inextricably united in an era of environmental uncertainty, where shared experiences and values place us within a collective culture, inspiring mutual agency in service of this vision for Social Urbanism.

Summary:
La catastrophe nucléaire de Fukushima a durablement bouleversé les relations autrefois intenses entre les individus, leur communauté et les cycles de la nature. Comment vivre alors dans un nouvel environnement? Telle est la question qu’évoque ce livre dans un dialogue à plusieurs voix : celle de la photographe Delphine Parodi, dont les diptyques, entre paysages intimes et portraits d’habitants, suggèrent l'altération de leur rapport au lieu et l'importance de la mémoire individuelle. Et celle l’écrivaine japonaise Yoko Tawada qui, par 24 poèmes rapportés de Fukushima, parachève un subtil équilibre entre visible et invisible. En donnant forme à ce qui reste une menace constante mais imperceptible, ce livre se veut un rappel universel à la conscience collective en temps de pandémie.

Les équipes pédagogiques dont il est question dans ce livre étaient persuadées qu'il fallait transformer radicalement le système scolaire pour contrevenir à la reproduction sociale et il·elle·s l'ont fait ! Véritable terreau d'inventions éducatives, relationnelles, institutionnelles, ces expériences ont beaucoup à nous apprendre aujourd'hui. Notamment au regard des pratiques artistiques coopératives et de co-création qui partagent avec elles un désir et des manières de faire, comme celui de la transformation sociale, la co-gestion, l'émergence de commun et la création collective.

Summary:
What does political agency mean for those who don't know what to do or can't be bothered to do it? This book develops a novel account of collective emancipation in which freedom is achieved not through knowledge and action but via doubt and inertia. In essays that range from ancient Greece to the end of the Anthropocene, Bull addresses questions central to contemporary political theory in novel readings of texts by Aristotle, Machiavelli, Marx, and Arendt, and shows how classic philosophical problems have a bearing on issues like political protest and climate change. The result is an entirely original account of political agency for the twenty-first century in which uncertainty and idleness are limned with utopian promise.
