Urbanisation reconsidered in the face of ongoing climate emergencies

In the face of the ongoing climate emergency, can humanity keep chipping at its food sheds via urbanisation? This is the paradoxical question raised by residential forms of urbanisation. On the one hand, housing settlements across the world devour thousands of hectares of arable fields at the periphery of growing cities. On the other hand, housing is a human right.

This publication investigates these complexities. After On Architecture and Greenwashing (2024), it is the second volume in the series The Political Economy of Space and presents a cross-section of positions on architecture and its political economies from different perspectives.
