Squatting in Europe: Radical Spaces, Urban Struggles (PB) (2013)

Squatting offers a radical but simple solution to the crises of housing, homelessness and the lack of social space that mark contemporary society: occupying empty buildings and rebuilding lives and communities in the process. Squatting has a long and complex history, interwoven with the changing and contested nature of urban politics. However, not all squatters share the same goals, resources, backgrounds or desire for visibility. 'Squatting in Europe' aims to move beyond the conventional understandings of squatting, investigating its history in Europe over the past four decades.
