People Power in Cities

In this episode of City Reads, host Jacqueline Tyrrell chats with Amanda Tattersall and Kurt Iveson about their recently published book 'People Power in Cities', which identifies and examines five 'people power' strategies considered through the lens of individual case studies from around the world - from Austin Texas, to Hong Kong, Sydney, Cape Town and Barcelona. Amanda and Kurt chat to us about 'playing by the rules', 'mobilising', 'organising', 'prefiguring', and 'running for office' in the context of these case studies, and the broader 'people power ecology' they sit within.
