Here is a group of German sociologists who revolutionize the idea of the taking over of the public space!
Die Urbanauten
It's on the observation that the city became a hostile middle, dictated by antisocials codes of behaviour, such the individualism and disregard, that Die Urbanauten decided to go to "the reconquest of the public space" by inviting populations to meet in the city-center.
In order that the city continues to be, first of all, a space of exchange, in the first meaning of this word, they organize there: debates, collective picnics and snub gleefully the conventions. Their watchword: « Make the street your living room, appropriate this space! ».
