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:
The thesis investigates emerging practices aimed at exploiting the World Wide Web as a space for popularizing historical knowledge. It questions the role of visual design in the communication of cultural heritage and historical information through online means, by addressing issues concerning data access, visualization, and interactive narration. A selection of cuttingedge history websites, ranging from online exhibitions to virtual museum tours, from temporal maps to interactive documentaries, illustrates how the online environment is expanding and challenging conventional historical scholarship. The critical analyses, conducted through the lens of graphic, web, and information design, suggest the need for enhanced collaborations between historians and designers.

Résumé:
For readers of ''The Sixth Extinction'' and ''The Uninhabitable Earth,'' ''Concrete'' explores the history of a material that has been central to architecture and design for thousands of years-and what its future looks like in a world experiencing rapid climate change. Imagine a world without concrete: there'd be no skyscrapers, no grand irrigation projects, no out of season vegetables, no highways. There would be a shortage of electricity, more mud in some places, more solitude in others. But because of the fossil fuels and other resources required to make concrete, there also would also be less carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and less dramatic climate change. In ''Concrete: From ancient origins to a problematic future,'' Mary Soderstrom tells the story of concrete's surprising past, extravagant present, and uncertain future with careful research, lively anecdotes, and thoughtful reflection.

In this book, Michael Truscello looks at the industrial infrastructure not as an invisible system of connectivity and mobility that keeps capitalism humming in the background but as a manufactured miasma of despair, toxicity, and death.

In this book, Christopher Henke and Benjamin Sims explore the causes and consequences of the strange, ambivalent, and increasingly central role of infrastructure repair in modern life. Henke and Sims offer examples, from local to global, to investigate not only the role of repair in maintaining infrastructures themselves but also the social and political orders that are created and sustained through them. Repair can encompass not only the kind of work we most commonly associate with the term but also any set of practices aimed at restoring a sense of normalcy or credibility to the places and institutions we inhabit in everyday life.
