Sur le site Archifutures, l’architecte et chercheur Merve Bedir propose un article retraçant les luttes pour les biens communs en Turquie, notamment à partir de l’occupation du Parc Gezi et comment cet épisode a contribuer à redéfinir la notion « d’espace public » et donné naissance à une nouvelle façon de concevoir l’urbanisme en Turquie.
Extrait :
In the case of Gezi Park, the kitchen and garden became places for everyone, yet they belonged to no-one and everyone, helping create a new vocabulary for the contested notion of public. Through the kitchen and garden, design and designer facilitate and get involved in a horizontal process of ecological and social “transition” that takes root in simple gestures of everyday life: growing food, preserving seeds, bartering knowledge and building tools of resilience to prepare for the multiple crises that lie on the horizon of our complex, yet fragile systems of organisation.
