Marc Augé, the anthropologist who coined the term non-place, passed away yesterday at the age of 87.
In his honor, we're publishing his introduction of the second edition of Non-Places.

Fabulous news, of incalculably immense importance in pushing developers and managements towards retrofit and away from avoidable demolition.
Huge congratulations to @SAVEBrit, @ArchitectsJrnal, @WHurst1, @Simonsturgis, @C20Society and all others who pushed for this.
@MunicipalDreams What an idea, that council housing could ever be a joyful home, or that its residents could be capable of making that! Really, this says it all, demonstrates so much of the vile class and architectural snobbery that - clearly - passes for unremarkable in so much of the media
⚠️ Calling all Culture Workers ⚠️ @uniofbrighton is trying to shut the fantastic @brighton_cca gallery by the end of the week. Please sign this letter of protest & tell @ProfRJaspal, @lloydaw & Debra Humphris what you think of their attack on the arts

*Five hundred* people drowned trying to reach Europe last week and it was covered but my god contrasting it to the coverage of this Titanic submarine is just appalling to see, so much more focus, experts on, analysis and interest from the public. Certain lives are so cheap to us
@OSaumarezSmith@C20Society This one in partic always surprises and pleases me when I pass by. Something unexpected in them all being military-related too.
