We want to ask in closing what it would mean to make living and learning together the global City Plan A, not just for Athens, and not just for cities across Europe, but for citizenship globally? The scenes of safe passage we have highlighted here suggest that many activists and refugees working for...

Images of homeless people—both those captured through cameras and imaginaries that saturated with meaning through popular discourse—have an enormous effect on how cities respond to the ongoing crisis of homelessness. As we write, New York City counts over 62,000 homeless people on the street and...

In what follows, I want to take a step back from the critical survey of works that somehow thematize the logistical, and reflect instead on some of the aesthetic presuppositions that subtend the orientation of art towards logistics, some of what we may think of as the lures of logistics for a politi...

Over thirty years have passed since refugees from Central America first started to make their way to the United States in significant numbers. Still, we continue to see federal authorities waging a war of rhetoric, and more, against unwanted migrants by charging greed over need, and condemnation ove...

The following photographs and video-stills take origin from map encounters. They are caught in public spaces or during moments of domestic life. These pictures derive from being alive while doing routine actions, feeling empathy with map users as well as with cartographic objects, capturing the tens...

Late last spring, two hundred students and researchers in Sao Paulo defied the political and economic backslide in Brazil in a particularly audacious way: they let a well-known witch lead them in a spiraling ritual dance and invocatory chant aimed at regenerating the land on which the city was built...

Waiting has become a characteristic condition of contemporary inequality. And yet, waiting does not mean that life stops flowing in Drum Village. As the glue of quotidian encounters, living is populated with all kinds of waiting: those insidious, but also those innocuous, those necessary, those enab...

February and March 2018 brought a mass walkout on UK university campuses over pension reform, but also state-wide teachers’ strikes in West Virginia, university campus strikes in Canada, ongoing struggles to unionise US university campuses, student walk-outs in US high schools over gun violence an...

A series of multivalent forces unleashed by successive rounds of capital accumulation are reconfiguring life at its most fundamental level—migration, state restructuring, climate change, technological innovation, gentrification, neo-populism, and beyond. Relationships, bodies, and whole worlds are...

In the sample of work below, you will find creative engagement with infrastructure in its seemingly banal and innocuous forms, like the jersey barrier, or the airport washroom. Some authors focus instead on the affective, intimate, and aspirational dimensions of infrastructure in engagements with im...

In the weeks and months following the election and inauguration of Donald Trump, I spent much of my time responding to concerns from friends that ICE would come for them or their family, meeting with city officials about how meaningful policy changes could protect immigrants, and creating space for...
