The recent ‘spatial turn’ in humanities deeply affected the fields of urban planning, security, marketing and law, modifying dramatically the way urban space is perceived, designed and controlled. What is the relation between these changes and the current global wave of social protests? How does urban space allow for, modify or prevent the expression of protests, and how protests in turn affect and modify its social and material form? The project addresses these questions by: [a] elaborating an innovative and interdisciplinary theoretical framework to unpack the urban dimension of social protest; [b] testing it through a comparative study of social protests vis-à-vis an exceptional event (the Rio de Janeiro Olympics) and an ‘everyday exceptionality’ (the ongoing crisis and related ‘austerity’ measures in Lisbon); [c] creating a transdisciplinary research network to translate [a] and [b] into an operative strategy to integrate the emancipatory potential of social protest within urban policy frameworks.
