Capitalizing Crisis
In this article we examine the post‐2009 transformation of Athens through the analytical lens of urban extractivism. We argue that the Greek sovereign debt crisis did not operate as a temporary disruption, but as a durable political condition that enabled the institutionalization of extractive urban governance. We draw on critical theories of extractivism to conceptualize crisis as a privileged historical moment through which economic, political,…
Artivist Response During the Covid-19 Pandemic in Athens
Through urban subversive festivities this paper explores artivist responses during the COVID-19 Pandemic in Athens (Greece). The disruption caused by the global pandemic in public spaces has prompted a critical examination of its role in urban claims and the evolving role of subversive festivities in artistic movements. These festivities transcend geographical boundaries and form rhizomatic networks that reclaim public spaces for political engage…
Salvador de Bahía
En este trabajo se investigan las posibilidades de descolonización de la educación en las escuelas, teniendo en cuenta el contexto de desarrollo urbano desigual, biopolítico y las resistencias creativas de los valiosos conocimientos culturales de las favelas, barrios de autoconstrucción popular creados por la defensa del "derecho a la ciudad", a través de múltiples prácticas y procesos en Brasil. Diferentes autores las ven como producto de la ráp…
Acts for Refugees’ Right to the City and Commoning Practices of Care-tizenship in Athens, Mytilene and Thessaloniki
During the recent refugee crisis, numerous solidarity initiatives emerged in Greece and especially in Mytilene, Athens and Thessaloniki. Mytilene is the capital of Lesvos Island and the main entry point in the East Aegean Sea, Athens is the main refugee transit city and Thessaloniki is the biggest city close to the northern borders. After the EU–Turkey Common Statement, the Balkan countries sealed their borders and thousands of refugees found the…
Social Resistances and the Creation of Another Way of Thinking in the Peripheral “Self-Constructed Popular Neighborhoods”
This study refers to urban social movements, creative social resistances, and the collectives that are emerging today in “self-constructed popular neighborhoods” (“barrios de auto-construcción popular” in Latin-American, Spanish bibliography; “quartiers d’auto-construction populaire” in French bibliography and “self-help housing” in Anglophone bibliography), with a special focus on the new characteristics of these movements and the poetics of the…
Crisis, Right to the City movements and the question of spontaneity
Mexico and Greece comprise typical cases of the so-called semi-periphery where neoliberal policies have been applied but also where social movements tried to resist the implementation of the policies in question. In the past, many Right to the City movements start to emerge, focused particularly on the right to the habitat. Recently, the most important RttC movements concerned the claims to public space and common goods, while at the same time op…
From the December Youth Uprising to the Rebirth of Urban Social Movements
The December youth uprising in Greece took on a new form, one that has generated in its turn other uprisings and new kinds of social and radical urban movements. Led by a broad spectrum of people of different ages and socio-economic backgrounds, it became the call for the 'right to the city', conceived as the right to free space and free expression, especially for the young who live in cities that have been designed to accommodate neoliberal capi…
Quelle mobilité quotidienne intra-urbaine sans la voiture ? Le cas des adolescents d’une banlieue de Strasbourg
Quelle peut être la structure géographique et les morphologies urbaines qui caractérisent la mobilité quotidienne des adolescents de banlieue qui n’ont pas directement accès à l’automobile ? Quel est le rôle des parents, tant par leur position sociale que par leur « soutien » aux déplacements quotidiens ? Finalement, quels sont les espaces urbains fréquentés par les adolescents, et dans quelle mesure il existe des différences à l’intérieur de ce …
