One common feature of the wave of recent revolutions and revolts around the world is not political but rather architectural: many erupted on inner-city roundabouts. In thinking about the relation between protest and urban form, Eyal Weizman starts with the May 1980 uprising in Gwangju, South Korea, the first of the “roundabout revolutions,” and traces its lineage to the(...)

Résumé:
One common feature of the wave of recent revolutions and revolts around the world is not political but rather architectural: many erupted on inner-city roundabouts. In thinking about the relation between protest and urban form, Eyal Weizman starts with the May 1980 uprising in Gwangju, South Korea, the first of the “roundabout revolutions,” and traces its lineage to the Arab Spring and its hellish aftermath. Rereading the history of the roundabout through the vortices of history that traverse it, the book follows the development of the roundabout in Europe and North America in the early twentieth century, to its subsequent export to the colonial world in the context of attempts to discipline and police the “chaotic” non-Western city. How did an urban apparatus put in the service of authoritarian power became the locus of its undoing?

Résumé:
"Temporary discomfort" documents Davos, Genoa, New York and Evian/Geneva in a transitory state of emergency lock-down during the global economic summits (2001–2003). It combines different photographical genres: landscape photography, photojournalism and police photography, though here with the camera lens turned back at the security forces. But instead of street fighting and handshakes, Jules Spinatsch shows winter nights in Davos, complete with floodlighted barbedwire labyrinths. He shows Genova, a fortress empty as the Mediterranean noonday sky. We see freight containers, symbols for world trade, that are used as barricades against its foes. He invites us to scrutinize the streets in New York at night: road blocks, tents, and mobile transmission units: that seem surreally empty. He photographs the sleepy waking of the security guards. Spinatsch examines the waiting for the big event that appears as meticulously planned, down to the last detail.

Résumé:
Histoire Québec souligne dans ce numéro le bicentenaire de l’ouverture du canal de Lachine.

Résumé:
The 2020 murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis led to the closure of the Tate Britain restaurant in London, which had advertised its 55-foot-long racist mural from the 1920s as "the most amusing room in Europe" Suddenly it was obvious. Flooded by Mail introduces strategies of antihegemonic amateur collecting and examines why the killing of a Black man by U.S. police in public implicates us in Europe. A number of objects found online are useful for this task: the trial minting of a coin commemorating the collapse of the Cologne City Archive that never entered circulation, a board game from a 1932 German film, stock photos and generic copperplate engravings from the same family over centuries, Köllnflocken trading cards, postcards from a wall in Morocco, a procession in Cologne and a possessed harbor in Spain, and a 1970s conceptualist installation with postcards of rough seas along the British coast.
