REBEL CITIES is a collection of theoretical texts from architects from all corners of the world who share one conviction: that the paradigm of functionalism, the source of the 20th century dogma of the unlimited exploitation of resources and authoritarian planning practices, has had its day. This linking of progress with productivity has seriously unbalanced the fair division of urban and natural resources on our planet. REBEL CITIES raises the question of how to imagine a more emancipating and reflective way of living our planet? REBEL CITIES proposes participatory design processes based on the collective memory and the individual engagement of citizens. LA VILLE REBELLE rassemble les textes théoriques d‘architectes qui, aux quatre coins du monde, partagent une conviction : le paradigme du fonctionnalisme, qui accompagna au XXe siècle l‘aménagement autoritaire de l‘espace et l‘exploitation sans limites des ressources, est aujourd’hui épuisé. Cette association du progrès au productivisme a gravement déséquilibré la répartition des ressources urbaines et naturelles sur la planète. *LA VILLE REBELLE* interroge : comment penser aujourd’hui une façon plus émancipatrice et réfléchie d’habiter le monde ? LA VILLE REBELLE propose des démarches de projet participatives, fondées sur la mémoire collective et l‘engagement des citoyens.
