With the growing importance of technology and communications, the effects of globalisation and the change in social demands, feminist praxis of space is diversifying and expanding. This book assesses these <em>altering practices<\/em> alongside the emergence of new social and political theories and within today\u00b4s urban and geopolitical contexts. The practices discussed in this book constitute a multitude of gestures, figures and actions: \u02c8urban curating\u02c8, \u02c8making space\u02c8, \u02c8taking place\u02c8, \u02c8urban cooking\u02c8, \u02c8building while being in it\u02c8, \u02c8drifting walls\u02c8, \u02c8mapping invisible privileges\u02c8, \u02c8confessional constructions\u02c8, \u02c8stray sods\u02c8. Together they form a piece of feminine textuality, a volume which is not divided into thematic sections but takes its shape from a \u02c8mise en relation entre des voix-femmes\u02c8 in which each contribution negotiates its proximity to the others<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:15px\">The contributions from architects, artists, cultural theorists and activists from different generations and a wide range of practices and fields of research are international in scope and combine to challenge traditional disciplinary and cultural boundaries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorfrancis.com\/books\/9780203003930\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">+ INFO<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:80px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Book, ed.
