“In Praise of Floods: The Study of Rivers and Civilization," #JamesCScott's 2020 #AlbertHirschman Prize lecture (43:20-): "a 'flood' is just a river breathing deeply", bounding is trespass, stabilization is often violence. Introduced by @Alondra (38:40) https://t.co/jFY7jdrbWc
@NewUrbanism @ImprctclArchtct I agree, don't experiment *on* the poor (or anyone), in housing. There's also a widespread problem of not experimenting *with* the poor & otherwise marginalized, ie in co-design & #DesignJustice ways, recognizing & uplifting diverse needs, capabilities, and #positivemarginality
Brad Pitt violated the cardinal architectural rule since Pruitt-Igoe: Do not experiment on the poor. Others, such as Habitat for Humanity and new urbanists, were far more successful in New Orleans. https://t.co/sDPXnEzv7j
@srajagopalan @OfficialNilsson remarkable work! thanks for the interesting new perspectives on India, etc, in these papers & @IdeasofIndia podcasts. For me, housing, building, land use matters especially: capabilities of/for the margins & from bottom up; #positivemarginality, as #bellhooks described:
"Marginality is much more than a site of deprivation…It is also the site of radical possibility…it nourishes one's capacity to resist. It offers the possibility of radical perspectives from which to see & create, to imagine alternatives, new worlds."
-#bellhooks, 1990
