内容説明
Creative
Spaces: Urban Culture and Marginality is an
interdisciplinary exploration of the different ways in which marginal urban
spaces have become privileged locations for creativity in Latin America. The
essays within the collection reassess dominant theoretical notions of
'marginality' in the region and argue that, in contemporary society, it
invariably allows for (if not leads to) the production of the new.
While Latin
American cities have, since their foundation, always included marginal spaces
(due, for example, to the segregation of indigenous groups), the massive
expansion of informal housing constructed on occupied land in the second half
of the twentieth century have brought them into the collective imaginary like
never before. Originally viewed as spaces of deprivation, violence, and
dangerous alterity, the urban margins were later romanticized as spaces of
opportunity and popular empowerment. Instead, this volume analyses the
production of new art forms, political organizations and subjectivities emerging
from the urban margins in Latin America, neither condemning nor idealizing the
effects they produce.
To account for the
complex nature of contemporary urban marginality, the volume draws on research from
a wide spectrum of disciplines, ranging from cultural and urban studies to
architecture and sociology. Thus the collection analyzes how these different
conceptions of marginal spaces work together and contribute to the imagined and
material reality of the wider city.
