OPEN CITY: DESIGNING COEXISTENCE
Tim Rieniets, Jennifer Sigler, Kees Christiaanse (eds.)
In an age when migration is changing the face of many cities, when mass mobility and communication are altering our perception of distance and difference, when individualism has become a driving force of social life, living together in cities has become a tenuous notion. The question is no longer if we want to live together, but how to live together–and how to share the resources and possibilities cities offer.

Part One: Dimensions
In Part One, writers from different disciplines—architecture, urban design, sociology, ethnography, geography, law, history, economy, and urban design—map various theoretical dimensions of the Open City and consider the global forces that challenge it.
Part Two: Situations
Part Two documents research and proposals by international architects, urban designers, and activists who were asked to initiate urban design projects in situations where the Open City is most challenged
