520 | _aEven though half of the world's population now lives in cities, the “right to the city,” which was called for by Henri Lefebvre in the 1960s, is not yet a reality for all. Not only do most urbanites lack the power and ability to shape their living environment, but they are sometimes excluded from the so-called public space altogether. Against this double rejection of their right to the city, some of them have imagined, whether consciously or not, daily acts of resistance by marking their surroundings or subverting their use. Urban gardening, despite its apparent innocuousness, has proved to be a powerful tool for protesting against the urban condition as shaped and defined by the ruling powers, both public and private. Even though the practice is now gaining recognition all over the world, the claiming of urban space—even minimal—through horticulture is still underway. | ||
