Space is both a product and a prerequisite of social relations; it has the potential to block and encourage certain forms of encounter. In Common Space; activist and architect Stavros Stavrides calls for us to conceive of space-as-commons ndash; first; to think beyond the notions of public and private space; and then to understand common space not only as space that is governed by all and remains open to all; but that explicitly expresses; encourages and exemplifies new forms of social relations and of life in common. Through a fascinating; global examination of social housing; self-built urban settlements; street trade and art; occupied space; liberated space and graffiti; Stavrides carefully shows how spaces for commoning are created. Moreover; he explores the connections between processes of spatial transformation and the formation of politicised subjects to reveal the hidden emancipatory potential of contemporary; metropolitan life.
