Common Space - The City as Commons

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.   Further Reading/References Left Coast Media Podcast Stavros Stavrides Common Space: The City as Commons  Occupy Movement Exarcheia Henri Lefebvre Utopian Socialism Haussmann's Renovation of Paris Red Vienna Le Corbusier Modernism Homo economicus Oikos Polis Liminality Jurgen Habermas Lifeworld Enclosure Popular Front Podcast Autonomism Susan Buck-Morss Review of Money: 5,000 Years of Debt and Power Polanyi's The Great Transformation ------------------------------------------------ Email us at [email protected]   Follow us on Twitter at Red Library@red_library_pod   Click here to subscribe to Red Library on iTunes    Click here to find Red Library on Facebook   Click here to find the host's political theory blog, Capillaries: Theory at the Front
