SUMMARY:Underdown تحت التحت
DESCRIPTION:In the concrete jungle that is Beirut\, Lebanon\, the outspoken taxi driver Abu Hussam is doing his best to survive. His dream is to find a roof above his head. Until that day comes\, he’ll sleep on the street and drive around the streets of Beirut with smoke pouring from the hood of his car. Beer offers some solace\, for a while. He explains why he’s happy in this hectic city: “The chaos suits me because if this country had order\, I wouldn’t be able to drink and drive.” \nElsewhere in the city\, a runaway Syrian boy named Ali has chosen to live alone on the streets. He loves the sea and his missing friend Azzam\, whom he’s waiting for day in and day out. We also meet Samya\, a whiskey-drinking woman who’s trying to finance an operation for her almost-blind mother. Just like Abu Hussam and Ali\, she’s hoping for better times\, and on occasion there’s a flicker of light at the end of the tunnel. Director Sarah Kaskas composed Underdown’s powerful soundtrack as well\, which also features music by Lebanese band Kinematik. \nDirector: Sarah Kaskas \nYear: 2018 \n72 min –\nSpoken languages: Arabic. Subtitles: English \n  \nRegistration is closed for this event

SUMMARY:Right to the City in Arab Contexts الحق في المدينة في البلدان العربية
DESCRIPTION:Masahat and Public Works Studio invite you to this online panel featuring the following Arab architects and urban researchers who will discuss the Right to the City in different Arab contexts taking case studies from Syria\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Egypt and Sudan. \n\nMajid Doglas\, Building Engineer (Occupied Ramallah): Reviving tangible cultural heritage in Palestinian cities and villages.\nTasneem Nagi\, Urbanist (Sudan): From Resistance to Reclamation: Renegotiating Urban Governance in the Sudanese Revolution.\nSawsan Abu Zeineddine\, Architect and Architect and Urban Development Planner (Syria): The Politics of The Spatial in The Syrian Conflict: The Case of Aleppo.\nMenna Agha\, Architect and Researcher (Egypt): There is something wrong with Public Space.\nTala Alaeddine\, Architect and Urban Researcher (Lebanon): Housing Rights and Participatory Processes: Towards a people-centered dignified recovery after the Beirut Blast”.\n\nModerator: Toufoul Abou-Hodeib\, Associate Professor in History\, University of Oslo. \n  \nFor many decades\, Arab cities have been subject to urban policies that have aggravated social\, economic\, political\, cultural and spatial injustice. Public authorities have centralized resources in the hands of the few\, while further alienating the inhabitants and depriving them from accessing basic services or participating in decisions that affect their daily lives. \nPrivatized and securitized public spaces\, environmental degradation\, depletion of natural resources\, social marginalization\, and mass evictions are some of the outcomes of decades-long urban development in different Arab contexts. \nIn clear contrast to these tendencies\, protesters in the Arab uprisings in 2011 and 2019 were able to access\, reclaim and own the public spaces\, albeit for a short while. However\, such attempts are not exclusive to mass protests. Numerous\, vibrant Arab social and urban movements\, groups and organizations are working to counter hegemonic urban powers and to reshape the cityspaces to make it belong to all citizens. \nThis panel will host urban researchers and architects from Lebanon\, Syria\, Palestine\, Egypt and Sudan to discuss the urban struggles in these contexts.

SUMMARY:Collecting the Archives of Past and Present Revolutions:  The project DREAM
DESCRIPTION:Masahat and CIMS (Centre for Islamic and Middle Eastern Studies Oslo) invite you to this seminar with Leyla Dakhli\, starting with a short presentation by Dakhli followed by discussion and Q&A from the floor. \nThe project DREAM is investigating revolutions and revolutionary dreams in the context of the Arab Mediterranean area after independence (1950’s until today). One of the big challenges in writing these histories of “ordinary revolutionaries” is to access documentation and archives. In our work\, we try to reflect on the status of the archives\, may they be “official” archives of the state or independent archiving or else private documentation made accessible to us by some individuals. Two specific aspects will be dealt of in this presentation: the opening (even sometimes in a very ephemeral way) of once inaccessible or invisible state archives after 2011\, and the multiplication of private archiving initiatives\, documenting in particular recent revolts and revolutions\, but also older memories. Does this private space complement or contradict the archive of power? What power regime does it build? \nIn conversation with Teresa Pepe (Chair of CIMS\, Associate Professor in Middle East Studies\, IKOS\, University of Oslo) and Rana Issa (Research Fellow at University of Oslo\, and Co-founding board member of Masahat-Open Spaces for Arab Culture in Exile). \nLeyla DAKHLI is a full-time historian in the French Center for National Research (CNRS)\, presently settled in the Marc Bloch Center in Berlin. Her work deals with the study of Arab intellectuals and social history of the South Mediterranean region\, with a particular focus on the history of women and the question of exiled intellectuals and activists. She is the Principal Investigator of the ERC-founded program DREAM (Drafting and Enacting the revolution in the Arab Mediterranean). Her last publications include L’Esprit de la révolte. Archives et actualité des révolutions arabes\, Éditions du Seuil\, oct. 2020.
