Subject of discussion will be the grammars of responsibility that guide housing controversies, the ways in which they are put into action by planners, real estate actors, tenants and urban communities, how they shape the urban fabric, and how they can be transformed into a politics of transition. All lectures will take place online and are set on the following dates:
