Abstracts

EN
The urbanisation of Ramallah is perceived as a unique study of urban development in extremely unfavourable conditions of colonisation, fragmentation and internal divides, also those affecting entire Palestine. Ramallah provides a good basis to reflect on the issues related to space, state, autonomy and social existence, both in Palestine and abroad. The article indicates that most studies regarding the urbanisation of Ramallah (in particular, artistic speculations about its past, present and future) deal with the abstract rather than address the actual activities of people living there who dream of a normal life. Ramallah is described as an intriguing urbanisation case, an effect of the local conditions and historical context that have made it into the city we live in today.
