About the Book
The young explorers from Microscape propose a renewed reflection on the nature of a city and its (underexploited) social and spatial potential in relation to the complicated issues of conflict and cohabitation. Nowadays, these issues are concentrated both inside and outside a city’s borders. Their proposal features the same grace and care with which they work on their projects, often made happy precisely by the ability of the authors to look at wellknown places and themes with a sideways, skimming glance that is capable of producing interesting reflections with a poetic reaction. Here, however, we are not dealing with a block of text accompanying a series of projects, but rather a complex operation of textual collage that aims to outline a political position in relation to issues of social space and to identify a theoretical position in the debates within the field. This requires the reader to pay greater attention.
