In the last decades, the notion of the city as a definable entity has been increasingly contested and reframed in relation to fluid and heterogenous urbanization processes. If the term still retains a collective intelligibility, this is because the urban imaginary is deeply rooted in individual lived experiences.

A new issue of Architecture Philosophy has been published! It presents keynote addresses by Sven-Olov Wallenstein, Chantal Mouffe, Kenneth Frampton, and Margareth Crawford, as well as a selection of papers presented at the 5th Biennial Conference of the International Society for the Philosophy of Architecture, dedicated to the topic of Public Space: the Real and the Ideal, which was organised by Hans Teerds together with André Patrão and Christoph Baumberger in the summer 2021.
