Rethinking Urban Inclusion: Spaces, Mobilisations, Interventions
Venue: Faculty of Economics (FEUC) at the University of Coimbra (Coimbra,
Portugal)
Dates: 28-30 June 2012
The Conference aims to understand and ultimately rethink social inclusion
at the urban scale, as the product of broader dynamics and the interaction
of different actors and languages. It will focus on emerging modes of
contesting the centrality of the state and market pervasiveness, new
varieties of counter-hegemonic positions and projects, and alternative
visions of urban democracy and justice that inform bottom-up and
participatory approaches to urban inclusion. By mixing academic with social
movement and civil society “expertise,” experiences of both the global
North and the global South, and the languages of social science and policy
with those of the humanities and art, the Conference aims to contribute to
an “ecology of knowledges” that gives visibility to new forms of collective
action and community experimentation reshaping contemporary cities in
different contexts.
