This book explores contemporary challenges of housing movement
organizations, looking specifically at the case of Rome, Italy. The
work identifies conditions that allow the re-composition of a class
of housing dispossessed and, consequently, the features of its
action in urban spaces. The book offers fresh analytical
perspectives to understanding contemporary urban transformation via
new spatial and strategic approaches. In striking detail, Carlotta
Caciagli shows how space is a crucial variable in shaping the
strategies that allow for the politicisation of a movement's social
base. She illustrates how new spatial configurations of urban space
result from unique struggles of the recomposed collective subject.
Most notably, three main conceptual tools are introduced to
disentangle the relationship between the recomposed precarious
class and space: "the spatial opportunity structure",
"configurations of strategies" and "educational sites of
resistance".
