  • The Proliferation of Video Surveillance in Brussels and Copenhagen
    TOWARDS THE PANOPTIC CITY THE PROLIFERATION OF VIDEO SURVEILLANCE IN BRUSSELS AND COPENHAGEN This master thesis has been co-written by Corentin Debailleul and Pauline De Keersmaecker 4Cities UNICA Euromaster in Urban Studies 2012-2014 Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) Supervisor : Mathieu Van Criekingen (Université Libre de Bruxelles) Second reader : Henrik Reeh (Københavns Universitet) Hence the major effect of the Panopticon: to induce in the inmate a state of conscious and permanent visibility that assures the automatic functioning of power. So to arrange things that the surveillance is permanent in its effects, even if it is discontinuous in its action; that the perfection of power should tend to render its actual exercise unnecessary; that this architectural apparatus should be a machine for creating and sustaining a power relation independent of the person who exercises it; in short, that the inmates should be caught up in a power situation of which they are themselves the bearers. To achieve this, it is at once too much and too little that the prisoner should be constantly observed by an inspector: too little, for what matters is that he knows himself to be observed; too much, because he has no need in fact of being so. In view of this, Bentham laid down the principle that power should be visible and unverifiable. Visible: the inmate will constantly have before his eyes the tall outline of the central tower from which he is spied upon. Unverifiable: the inmate must never know whether he is being looked at at any one moment; but he must be sure that he may always be so.

  • Placemaking, Visioning and Negotiating for a Common on the Josaphat Site
    (How) can you plan an urban common? Place­making, visioning and negotiating for a common on the Josaphat site in Brussels. Hanne Van Reusel1, Philippe De Clerck2 Burak Pak3, Johan Verbeke³ IASC 1st thematic conference on the commons, 2015 THEMATIC TRACK ­ Designing and Governing the City as a Commons Resource? 1 KU Leuven, Faculty of Architecture, campus Sint­Lucas Brussels 2 ULB, Faculté d’Architecture La Cambre Horta, CLARA research center 3 Ibid. 1 INTRODUCTION “We hope to be politically recuperated and for this to happen in the right way.” The former railway site of Josaphat, in Brussels, is mainly lying bare. The Brussels Capital Region, the owner of the terrain, is finalising its development scheme (Schéma directeur) in the hope to provide a solid answer to the critical housing need in Brussels. Recognising this need but raising questions on the decision­making and management process for the future development, the citizen collective Commons Josaphat (CJ) aims to negotiate the future development of the Josaphat site as an urban common. This is not an easy target within the Brussels urban development setting; most of the bottom­up city­making ventures cross upon rigorous barriers when reaching out to the decision­making level4. In this endeavour, CJ actualises its own, context­based and continuous adjusted trajectory to manoeuvre its way in in the practice of an urban planning alternative, while following the self­outlined and negotiable principles. CJ is only one of many rich examples that aim to fight for and defend the urban commons. Though, we argue, CJ particularly situates itself in this global surge by its experimental approach to practice the commons on an explicit urbanistic scale, exploiting the opportunities the Josaphat site offers as zone of regional interest.
