The Insurgent Barricade

نقلا عن أخبار الشروق   ظهرت صور خرائط "جوجل إرث" تحويل منطقة وسط البلد إلى ثكنات عسكرية وتجمعات أمنية عسكرية بعد .إقامة أكثر من 7 حوائط خراسانية و 6 حواجز حديدية وأسلاك شائكة التي تغلق بدورها المسارات الرئيسية للطرق منطقة بوسط البلد.

 

The Insurgent Barricade (University of California Press, 2010.) written by Professor Mark Traugott as a series of (chronological) essays around this notion. The book also include a very useful chapter ‘The Function of the Barricade’ that allies recurrent functions with more anecdotal ones like the brief invention of mobile counter-barricades by the suppressive power in 1848 for example (see image above)

Quotes

The people from the barrio built the city twice: during the day we built the houses of the well-off. At night and at weekends, with solidarity, we built our own homes, our barrio.
