Durch das Aufeinandertreffen von Gesundheits- und Klimakrise ist ein Rückgriff auf bislang bewährte Forschungsansätze im Bereich des Wohnens nicht mehr zielführend. Wie prägen die geografischen und politischen Entwicklungen das heutige Wohnen?Lifelines ist eine Gemeinschaftsforschungsarbeit zu Räumen, in denen sich Lebensformen vermischen, durchdringen und verflechten – und zwar in ständigem Widerstand gegen die Mechanismen einer techno-kapitalistischen Gegenwart, die soziale und ökologische Unsicherheiten nicht nur abbilden, sondern auch erzeugen und nutzen. Die Autor*innen beleuchten die Herausforderungen, die sich dem heutigen Entwerfen stellen, und untersuchen die Rolle, die dem Entwerfen in prekären Räumen zukommt. Das Buch versammelt empirische Untersuchungen aus Italien, Ecuador, den USA, dem Libanon, Deutschland und Großbritannien. In the face of the radical convergence of a health crisis and an ecological crisis, it is not possible to return to the investigative trajectories on inhabitation and dwelling that yielded good results in the past. What is it that now defines inhabitation within the plurality of conditions, geographies, and politics that connote it? Lifelines is a work of collective research on the spaces where life intertwines, mingles, and twists in constant resistance to the mechanisms that capture, exploit, and create the social and environmental precariousness that characterizes the violent techno-capitalist present.The book investigates the roles and challenges of design in uncertain spaces and brings together empirical explorations from Italy, Ecuador, the US, Lebanon, Germany, and the UK.
