Pandemic versus collective space? Towards a topology of care

During this health crisis a miracle has occurred. Beyond its tragic and painful aspects, the breach of confinement rules has led to unexpected changes, profoundly altering urban scenarios that were believed long established. With the lockdown over, attempts are now being made to design new biopolitical scenarios and define priority themes for a post-crisis urban regeneration, in terms of the constitution of social innovation practices and regarding the stimulation of urban cultures and policies, aimed at a greater care of the multitude of subjectivity of which the civitas is made up. Within this framework, the theme of care represents an important challenge for a new epistemology of the crisis, on which to implant experimental policies of shared administration, new visionary capacities and renewed practices of communing.
