Territorial Agency - InterAlia
An architectural and urban analysis of the modalities adopted to outplay, moderate and
contain conflictual situations, can reveal a set of the specific and always mutable relations
between contemporary polity and space. Operating amidst an ecology of practices,
architecture is today re-articulating the relation between the objects it organises and
shapes, and the various forms of gathering of public concerns around them. As a form-
generating practice amongst other form-generating practices, architecture is today
confronted with a complex condition, where the situational analysis of the present cannot
be disjoined and independently understood from a diagnostic bearing on the possibilities
of transformation.
