| URBN 1870R - Do-It-Yourself Urbanism |
|
This seminar examines urbanism conceived as the autonomous, creative, and everyday making of city space. It analyzes the concepts of “right to the city” and “do-it-yourself” urbanism through protests over public space in Istanbul, Occupy encampments across the U.S., individual gestures of anarchist contestation, and graffiti and street artists' small-scale acts of aesthetic transgression. We engage the major conversations in the academy and on the streets about possible urban futures, including Latino urbanism from a thirdspace perspective and in its guerrilla, insurgent, participatory, and vernacular incarnations.
