In 1970, Richard Sennett published the groundbreaking The Uses of
Disorder, arguing that the ideal of a planned and ordered city was
flawed. Fifty years later, Sennett returns to these still fertile
ideas and, alongside campaigner and architect Pablo Sendra, sets
out an agenda for the design and ethics of the Open City. The
public spaces of our cities are under siege from planners,
privatisation and increased surveillance. Our streets are becoming
ever more lifeless and ordered. What is to be done? Can disorder be
designed? In this provocative essay Sendra and Sennett propose a
reorganisation of how we think and plan the social life of our
cities. 'Infrastructures of disorder' combine architecture,
politics, urban planning and activism in order to develop places
that nurture rather than stifle, bring together rather than divide
up, remain open to change rather than closed off.
