The Activist City highlights different forms of civic protest: political, urban and architectural activism. Political activism mostly takes place in the city, urban activism has the city as its topic. ‘Architectural activism’ sounds like a paradox as architecture is on the side of money and power and activism opposes these. But over the last years we have seen architects engaging with the skills of their discipline within urban activism and even see forms arising of what could be called ‘activist architecture’.
