Five Theses on the Neoliberal City
BAVO presented the 'Five Theses on the Neoliberal City' at the first Civic City Conference in Zürich. The conference dealt with the design for a post-neoliberal city. As the Five Theses bypass the leftist myth of disaster capitalism, the presentation did arouse a passionate and sometimes even fierce discussion among the conference participants.
The Five Theses are:
1) The neoliberal city is not made by neoliberal hands
2) The neoliberal city is a socioeconomic win-win
3) In the neoliberal city everybody participates
4) In the neoliberal city everything is possible
5) The neoliberal city develops democratic conflict
The main argument is that the neoliberal city is always almost beyond itself. The designer eager to dream up post-neoliberal urban events is thus forced to behave extremely diplomatic.
Download the presentation here.
The minutes of the presentation and discussion will be uploaded soon.
The conference is organised by the Zurich University of the Arts Institute Design2context
Other speakers are: Elisabeth Blum, Ruedi Baur, Tom Holert, Bernd Kniess, Margit Mayer, Erik Swyngedouw and Nik Theodore.
