Résumé:
A complex bamboo pyramid to block a busy crossing in London. A maze of 'mini Stonehenge' brick structures to hinder government crackdowns in Hong Kong. The takeover of a Dallas highway to create a temporary public square. Architects have often used their skills in struggles for civil rights, gender equality and climate justice. Illuminating the role that design has played in protest movements, Nick Newman explores the colliding worlds of architecture and activism through the stories of those who have built for change. Using historic and contemporary examples, Protest Architecture analyses the design problems and solutions faced by protestors on the streets through detailed drawings, photography and expert insight. From beacons to barricades, towers to treehouses, this unique design typology demonstrates architectural influence over moments of societal change. This is a retelling of protest history through the eyes of an architect.

Résumé:
Museums are frequently sites of struggle and negotiation. They are key cultural institutions that occupy an oftentimes uncomfortable place at the crossroads of the arts, culture, various levels of government, corporate ventures, and the public. Because of this, museums are targeted by political action but can also provide support for contentious politics. Though protests at museums are understudied, they are far from anomalous. "Tear Gas Epiphanies" traces the as-yet-untold story of political action at museums in Canada from the early twentieth century to the present. The book looks at how museums do or do not archive protest ephemera, examining a range of responses to actions taking place at their thresholds, from active encouragement to belligerent dismissal. Drawing together extensive primary-source research and analysis, Robertson questions widespread perceptions of museums, strongly arguing for a reconsideration of their role in contemporary society that takes into account political conflict and protest as key ingredients in museum life.

Résumé:
"Protest" takes a wide-ranging approach to the practice of protest, bringing together contributors from different disciplines and from around the globe. Social, historical, sociological and political-scientific perspectives play as much of a role in this publication as approaches that draw on image theory, popular culture, cultural studies and the arts. Simultaneously historical and contemporary, the book also explores such present-day developments as the virtualization of activism, the relationship of the virtual and the fictional, and the exploitation of these trends in politics by power-holders of all shades. A timely publication, "Protest: The Aesthetics of Resistance" explores marginalized communities' practices of resistance and reflects on the past, present and future of protest.

Résumé:
The past seventy-five years have been a time of extreme social and cultural transformations worldwide. Political and social upheaval, often contentious, disorienting and polarizing, is now a daily reality. Whether migration crises, territorial disputes, gender inequity, class divisions, racism, war, gun violence or environmental concerns, we live in a world rife with ideological and tribal conflicts. Since its inception, photography has captured defining historical moments, serving as either a tool or a document of protest—or both. In placing photobooks next to posters, DIY zines and independent journals, ''Flashpoint!'' explores the diverse roles and varying aesthetics that photography in print undertakes in its support of protest and resistance. Is it a “tool” conceived through an “aesthetic of urgency” to be used during events as they unfold, as in an anonymously designed poster or ink-stained fliers plastered on street walls? Or an elegantly designed photobook, published a year or more later, often with the help of well-known photographers, writers and designers, to document a past uprising? Whether outright rage or a more subtle artist-driven commentary, protest photography in print covers all of these formats and sometimes transcends rigid media definitions, as it blurs the lines between what constitutes a book, zine, journal, poster or newspaper.

Résumé:
En livrant une généalogie de la pensée écologique dans les sciences sociales et en l’illustrant par une série d’enquêtes, cet ouvrage défend trois approches complémentaires de l’étude des milieux de vie humains. Il revient, d’abord, à Chicago, aux origines de l’écologie humaine, quand ont été forgés les premiers outils d’analyse statistique et cartographique des territoires urbains et suburbains. Il rend compte, ensuite, d’une anthropologie des mondes sociaux, avec leurs espaces de vie et leurs histoires de vie : une série de cas d’étude, de la banlieue parisienne à Bruxelles, Hollywood ou Hambourg, démontre ici la fécondité de cette ethnographie des milieux de vie. Il propose, enfin, une troisième perspective qui combine une sémiologie et une psychologie écologiques. Centrée sur les corps des citadins et les champs d’expérience à leurs entours, elle décrit leurs façons de s’ancrer dans différentes espèces d’espaces, de les percevoir et de les transformer. Ces territoires, lieux d’appropriation, d’expérimentation et de protestation, sont aussi des terrains de conquête et de résistance : l’écologie humaine s’ouvre alors au droit à la ville. Trois perspectives sur l’écologie humaine qui explorent comment les sociétés humaines sculptent leurs milieux de vie.
