Common Space - The City as Commons

Jan 13, 2020

Part 2 of Red Library's Lost Futures Series

 

WE ARE BACK.

 

We are joined in the library by a new guest and patron of the show, Comrade Tiberius, to lead us through Common Space: The City as Commons by Stavros Stavrides. 

 

In the discussion, we talk about core elements in Stavrides' conception of the city as a common space such as the relationship between spaces and the people they create, modernism, the distinction between public and private, and what it would mean to struggle for a commons for us all.
