Space is both a product and a prerequisite of social relations, it has the potential to block and encourage certain forms of encounter.

Through a fascinating, global examination of social housing, self-built urban settlements, street trade and art, occupied space, liberated space and graffiti, Stavrides carefully shows how spaces for commoning are created.
