Who is eligible to use certain spaces? What defines public space and who owns and allows access to it? Who has the right to the city? How does architecture and urban planning influence people's everyday lives? Who benefits from it, who is left behind? The paper by Christian Haid and Lukas Staudinger tries to find the answers to these questions. Christian and Lukas are lecturers and supervisors of the City Lab Venice at European Cultural Academy, and founders of POLIGONAL Office for Urban Communication in Berlin.
