EvaEva Garcia Chueca presents the book launch of "The Right to the City - building another possible world: STI guidelines for understanding and operationalization" (GPR2C)

The book is a political claim conveying the utopian call of some urban groups that hope for another possible city? Or is it a programmatic instrument enabling key transformations to shift the current urban model? This book tries to answer those and other questions by exploring the contents of the right to the city building on the struggles, experiences and mobilizations that have taken place during the last decades.
