The Politics of Urban Potentiality

Exploring urban potentiality, this volume highlights how performances that reclaim city spaces can serve as an emancipatory force during crises of dominant urban behavior. It emphasizes the importance of establishing new habits, shaping collective experiences, and reinventing community relations. Rather than focusing on singular heroic acts, it advocates for understanding the power of repeated dissident performances. Ultimately, it argues for a collective ethos of commoning rooted in mutuality and equality, transcending traditional notions of sharing urban resources.
