Insurgent Urbanisms are often seen as spontaneous, grassroots responses to the inequities embedded in urban policies, projects, and systems. Through field research and firsthand activism, this book reveals how insurgencies not only resist but actively reshape urban orders, built environments, and public landscapes.
