TUW 2018: URBAN CULTURE, PUBLIC SPACE AND HOUSING / SUMMER TERM / MODULE: Urban Culture and Public Space Strategies and interventions of the production of space Barbara Pizzo (City of Vienna Visiting Professor) and Sabine Knierbein Among the many perspective to look at the making of urban places as an object of inquiry, we aim at focusing on urban transformations as they mirror the way in which public action (Comaille 2004, Lascoumes & Le Gales 2007) takes form, highlighting power relationships and inclusion/exclusion dynamics; and the way in which socio-spatial relationships are conceived and materialize, with a particular attention for public/private relations and the ever-changing meaning of this fundamental yet disputed dyad. This means also that urban transformations in their material outcomes are the entry point of theoretical reflection, which mobilizes concepts and theories related to urban studies, planning and policy analysis.
