Through an exploration of emancipation in recent processes of
capitalist urbanization, this book argues the political is enacted
through the everyday practices of publics producing space. This
suggests democracy is a spatial practice rather than an abstract
professional field organized by institutions, politicians and
movements. Public Space Unbound brings together a
cross-disciplinary group of scholars to examine spaces, conditions
and circumstances in which emancipatory practices impact the
everyday life of citizens. We ask: How do emancipatory practices
relate with public space under 'post-political conditions'? In a
time when democracy, solidarity and utopias are in crisis, we argue
that productive emancipatory claims already exist in the lived
space of everyday life rather than in the expectation of urban
revolution and future progress.
