Résumé:
The Politics of Public Space is a quarterly publication of transcripts that speak directly to the city and the way we read it. The second volume addresses the effects of COVID-19, including the sudden changes in the way we interact and view our public spaces. It contains excerpts from Myria Georgiou, Saskia Sassen, Jack Self, Brooke Holmes, Ian Strange and Alfredo Brillembourg. This publication curates a series of global perspectives as we all come to terms with a new way of life due to the virus. Myria Georgiou observes the emergence of digital solidarity groups throughout the UK as inequalities and vulnerabilities are foregrounded. World-renowned sociologist Saskia Sassen reveals the pervasiveness of power as the fragility of our global connectedness is further disclosed. The true publicness of our cities is revealed in Jack Self’s account of protest and opposition to the political structures. Brooke Holmes depicts an interconnectedness between the health of the city and it’s citizens traced back to antiquity. Australian artist Ian Strange unpacks his understanding of the home as he recounts a decade of practice into the subject. And Venezuelan architect Alfredo Brillembourg calls to arms the architecture profession to deal directly with issues of injustice within the built environment.

Résumé:
Des mouvements Occupy et Maidan sur les places historiques des villes du monde entier à l'occupation des ronds-points par les gilets jaunes en France, de l'accueil des migrants à Calais à la lutte contre l'habitat indigne à Marseille, une même aspiration démocratique a pour lieu l'espace public : faire entendre et faire voir des revendications de reconnaissance et d'égalité politiques, sociales, économiques. Mais cette démocratie en acte ne se vit pas uniquement sur le mode de l'insurrection : elle est une lutte quotidienne contre la confiscation de la ville par des intérêts privés, commerciaux et financiers, et contre sa stérilisation au nom de la sécurité. La démocratie est une pratique à l'oeuvre dans la fabrique de la ville, à toutes les échelles et jusque dans ses marges, lorsque les espaces s'arpentent et s'investissent de manière inattendue.

Résumé:
In recent years, urban uprisings, insurrections, riots, and occupations have been an expression of the rage and desperation of our time. So too have they expressed the joy of reclaiming collective life and a different way of composing a common world. At the root of these rebellious moments lies thresholds - the spaces to be crossed from cities of domination and exploitation to a common world of liberation. 'Towards the City of Thresholds' is a study of these new forms of socialization and uses of space - self-managed and communa l- that passionately reveals cities as the sites of manifest social antagonism as well as spatialities of emancipation.

Résumé:
This volume investigates impact of these vast industrial estates on landscape and society from various perspectives. It reveals the architectural and spatial, legal, economic, social, and environmental ramifications of the logistics system in this region and elsewhere. It examines the ensembles of windowless steel boxes on three scales: as an architectonic-landscape entity the size of a small town, as a network that reshapes the map of Europe so to define its own territoriality, and as part of the everyday life of the workers inside and the residents around them.

Résumé:
The New Normal (2017-2019) was a post-graduate program and Speculative Urbanism think-tank within Moscow’s renowned Strelka Institute of Media, Architecture, and Design. Directed by distinguished American social theorist Benjamin H. Bratton, The New Normal conducted a collaborative research to investigate the impact of planetary-scale computation on the future of cities both in Russia and around the world. ''The New Normal'' book, edited by Benjamin H. Bratton, Nicolay Boyadjiev, and Nick Axel, features twenty-two interlinked projects that were part of the research. Published alongside are seventeen illustrated contributions by international researchers and designers that outline the wider scope of The New Normal program's output, held together by concise thematic texts contributed by Benjamin H.

Résumé:
Deeply divided, with ethnic French dominating the south and a large, vibrant North African community in the north, the city of Marseille typifies the tensions stemming from problematic governance, a constant influx of migrants, the widespread privatisation of services, and rapid, profit-driven, and destructive post-industrial urbanisation. Examining this complex city through a series of case studies of its built environment, this book tells of an urban reality where migration is especially prevalent. Essays, photographs, and drawings illustrate the impact of migration on space, architecture, and territory. But it also offers strategies for development that can support social and spatial integration.

Résumé:
Cities have always been places where commerce and production, working and living, are physically and functionally integrated. Only with the rise of industry have zoning regulations been introduced to separate these functions. But what role do these regulations play when industry is digitized, increasingly emission-free and shifting away from mass production What will the ideal mix of working and living be in the future In a world characterized by digital disruption, migration and demographic shifts, how do we build cities based on social equity and resilience. Based on interdisciplinary urban design research undertaken at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design, the Zurich-based architecture studio Hosoya Schaefer presents ''The industrious city: urban industry in the digital age''. Investigating how production can be reintroduced into the urban fabric, this book explores how production, services, leisure and living might come together in a future integrated city.

Résumé:
Les mobilités transforment la vie urbaine et la production de l'espace et de l'architecture. Dans la société des échanges, les hubs sont les réceptacles premiers de ces transformations en cours. Ils préfigurent les évolutions globales de la ville des déplacements durables, à l'heure de la communication numérique embarquée et des flux intelligents. « Le Projet Hub» ne décrit pas à nouveau l'urbanisme des transports ou la complexité des réseaux, mais aborde la question qui s'impose: comment plus de trente modes de mobilités potentiels peuvent-ils coexister et se relier en un même lieu, à l'image des données qui s'échangent dans l'espace virtuel et ubiquitaire de nos smartphones? Les gares de la mégalopole nippone, de par leur histoire et leur surdéveloppement, ont représenté au 20e siècle l'avenir de telles infrastructures. Elles en incarnent désormais le passé. Bientôt bouleversées par la diversité des nouvelles mobilités écologiques, elles se révèlent être le terrain privilégié pour projeter la transformation du hub des mobilités du futur proche, qui n'existe pas encore et que nous devons faire apparaître.
