A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Eviction might be considered a form of infrastructure: as a process of binding and unbinding people to a world in movement, producing the grounds on which action can take place. Going beyond a causal relationship between infrastructure and displacement, we may posit that eviction can be seen as a distributed, ongoing, system which binds people and creates the grounds for action. So, what might infrastructural theory reveal about evictions? How might we begin to study eviction as infrastructure?
