‘Forced cultivation?’: Faces of acceleration in Polish community gardens
Community gardens are often projected as alternatives to individualism, neoliberalism and social acceleration. We interrogate these imaginaries through the practicalities of gardening, particularly gardeners’ relationships with soil, by focusing on the disjunctive temporalities of community gardens in Poland. Specifically, we explore how these gardens promote ‘forced cultivation’, understood as culturally and politically motivated interferences w…
Labor, Work, and Action in Polish Community Gardens: Interlaced or Disconnected
Widely considered a socio-ecological innovation, the community garden may appear a model for better human-environment relations. This article draws attention to the work needed to grow a garden and applies Hannah Arendt’s framework to demonstrate that labor, work, and action are predominantly disconnected in Polish community gardens. Their separation prevents most community gardens from becoming vehicles of urban sustainability. Yet they have an …
Slippery pathways to socio-ecological utopias of community gardening: Examples from Poland
The multiple faces of recentralization: A typology of central-local interactions
This article seeks to provide a conceptual framework and a methodological apparatus for investigating conflicts between central and local governments. Our work is inspired by contemporary recentralization processes seen in Europe, which are motivated both pragmatically (to counteract the financial crisis) and ideologically (the “illiberal turn”). These phenomena refer to the broader concept of conflict of interest, which is at the core of democra…

The theoretical elaborations on suburban governance are evolving towards the analysis of constellations of diverse actors, institutions and processes that define the politics and design of suburban spaces. We assume that there are …
