SS21

This seminar proposes the adaptation and theoretical development of the Modul 3 course “Cultural Planning in Europe and the Americas” with a focus on in-class debates, rather than one-sided lectures. This semester, we will explore the following topics: culture as a tool in formal urban planning; the creation of global networks of cities; the concept of “tactical” urbanism; examples of temporary spaces with a resistance character; and the concept of urban informality.
The seminar will include examples of case studies from Europe, North and South America, as well as debates with invited guests from Berlin (Germany) and Rio de Janeiro (Brazil).
This seminar will be held in English.

Students who have not attended the Modul 3 Seminar are also welcome and encouraged to register!
