Description: Insurgent Public Space : Guerrilla Urbanism and the Remaking of Contemporary Cities, Hardcover by Hou, Jeffrey (EDT), ISBN 0415779650, ISBN-13 9780415779654, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Variations on the Public Realm was a panel at the 2007 Conference of the Pacific Rim Community Design Network, where an initial set of working papers was presented that led to this anthology. Landscape architects, urban planners, geographers, and other thinkers and doers discuss both principles and examples of unauthorized appropriation of city spaces, typically to resist to commercial infestation or social exclusion. Their topics include Latino urbanism in Los Angeles as a model for urban improvisation and reinvention, cultivating sustainable development in Berlin's Freiräume, immigrant women making places of fusion and resistance in Taiwanese townships, farmhouses as urban/rural public space, the San Francisco Bureau of Urban Secrets and the practice of history as a public art, and using the banner of public space to build capacity and activate change in Toronto and Vancouver.
