THEME
[Body text] This conference aims to investigate bureaucracy as a site of struggles for spatial solidarity and, as such, as an essential part of the architecture discipline. To establish and secure a democratic and solidary society, it needs law and bureaucracy. As the historian Reinhart Koselleck shows, in processes of emancipation, the principle of self-liberation is always entwined with the socio-regulatory framework of law. Highlighting an intermediary sphere in the production of architecture, bridging from the first ideas to the architect’s design phase and the construction site, this conference aims to theorize and map a space of radical bureaucracies in architecture.
