Crammed into a space of 139 square miles (360 square kilometers), 1.8 million people live under an Israeli siege, enforcing conditions that continue to plummet to ever more unimaginable depths of degradation and despair. Gaza, however, is more than an endless encyclopedia of depressing statistics. It is also a place of fortitude, resistance, and imagination; a context in which inhabitants go to remarkable lengths to create the ordinary conditions of the everyday and to reject their exceptional status. Inspired by Gaza's inhabitants, this book builds on the positive capabilities of Gazans. It brings together environmentalists, planners, activists, and scholars from Palestine and Israel, the US, the UK, India, and elsewhere to create hopeful interventions that imagine a better place for Gazans and Palestinians. Open Gaza engages the Gaza Strip within and beyond the logics of siege and warfare, it considers how life can be improved inside the limitations imposed by the Israeli blockade, and outside the idiocy of violence and warfare"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Architecture $z Gaza Strip. 650 0 $a City planning $z Gaza Strip. 651 0 $a Gaza Strip $x Environmental conditions. 650 7 $a Architecture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00813346 650 7 $a City planning. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862177 650 7 $a Ecology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00901476 651 7 $a Gaza Strip. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01240021 700 1 $a Sorkin, Michael, $d 1948-2020, $e editor. 700 1 $a Sharp, Deen, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Open gaza $b First edition. $d New York : Terreform : The American University in Cairo Press, 2020. $z 9781649030726 $w (DLC) 2020028151 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317020415.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210807010454.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AB7B773CCF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
