Migration and a sustainable global existence are two of the biggest challenges of our time. How can they be combined? Historically, migration has been a driving force for societal development and urbanisation, but so has the individual’s acceptance of transformation and change of the environment. New places are overlaid with experiences of earlier spaces, anchoring transnational relations in a local history. What kind of city emerges from migration’s transformative dynamics? Swedish contemporary history is marked by migration in different directions. How have the Swedish city and the planning been developed and affected by the dynamics of migration? Which new spaces and social relationships, rituals and movements, have emerged out of the power field of migration? How is the city formulated and reformulated based on the new inhabitants’ needs, rights and responsibilities? Resources has, for a number of years, studied urban development and transformation in relation to reduced resources, a changing climate and the idea of the right to the city – with a specific focus on the global South. Here, the conditions of the city are renegotiated in the dividing line between economic growth and demographic movement, between global agendas and the local inhabitant’s action and building. To Resources’ final year at the Royal Institute of Art, we bring this knowledge and turn our gaze to the Swedish contemporary city and its characteristics. Resources.14 will explore urban Sweden based on the transformation processes that take place in the city of migration. We call it A Swedish Urbanism. For Resources.14 we are looking for committed individuals who want to explore these issues and during one year, and as part of a group, develop their ideas.
