Commoning and Territoriality in the Public Space “Plasma” of Historical Cities: Investigating Emplaced Network Dynamics in Bhaktapur, Kathmandu Valley, Nepal
In the contemporary discourse on sustainable urban development, emplaced commoning through collaborative territorial production is identified as crucial to the socio-spatial wellbeing of local communities. Eminently, in historical cities of the Global South, this commoning is threatened by rampant spatial enclosing and privatisation driven by transnational free-market forces that deterritorialise, overcode and homogenise its emplaced spatialities, depleting public space and annihilating its invaluable socio-spatial assemblages. We investigate processes of territorial appropriation, association and stabilisation of long-established micro-instances of autonomous differential territorialisation in a central public space of Bhaktapur, Kathmandu Valley. We discuss a cross-sectional ethnographic mapping of spatial strategies and tactics of relevant networks intertwining socialisation, economic and cultural activities. We shed light on collaborative capacities that resist abstraction and provide evidence to redress the discourse on public space, counterhegemonic cultures and the universal Right to the city in our transductive and supraterritorial planetary urbanisation.
