<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">@all: as always please circulate widely and document on a pad or this list where you have posted so we avoid multiple posts. <span style="font-size:12pt">Probably a good idea to include the issue URL: </span><a href="http://peerproduction.net/issues/issue-11-city" class="x_OWAAutoLink" id="LPlnk648450" style="font-size:12pt" previewremoved="true">http://peerproduction.net/issues/issue-11-city</a></p>

<div> </div>
</div>
<div>
<div dir="ltr">
<div dir="auto">
<div dir="auto">The new special issue of the Journal of Peer Production on CITY is <span style="font-size:12pt">published!</span></div>
<div dir="auto"><span style="font-size:12pt"><br>
</span></div>
<div dir="auto"><a href="http://peerproduction.net/issues/issue-11-city" class="x_OWAAutoLink" id="LPlnk536375" previewremoved="true">http://peerproduction.net/issues/issue-11-city</a></div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">It showcases a wide variety of case studies in cities from different geographies of the Global North and Global South namely
<b>Barcelona, Berlin, Brisbane, Brussels, Ciudad Ju�rez, Dhaka, Genoa, London, Melbourne, Milan, New York, Paris, Rosario. </b><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Some of those case studies focus more on peer production technologies and others more on the social and political processes on the ground, all with different research methodologies and approaches. They invite us to reflect on various forms
of peer production of knowledge and representation of the city as a commons, where technology should be considered as both a tool (infrastructure) and a contested space. They look at challenges of governance focusing on citizen-driven models of peer production
in the city where local governments are called to be in dialogue and build synergies with different stakeholder communities. They use participatory and collaborative methods to collect their data following co-creative research approaches. They are transdisciplinary
as much as interdisciplinary in both the methodological and theoretical approaches taken by contributors who merge together urban studies, architecture, informatics, political and social sciences, and ethnography to name a few. The authors collaborated directly
- as activists or through their research with other activists, communities and/or stakeholders- giving voice to all those involved in the making and sharing of those projects. </div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">In numbers, there are <b>eight case study research papers</b> which have been peer-reviewed and revised through the particularly transparent review process of JoPP (i.e. for each of the peer-reviewed papers the originally submitted version,
the reviews and the final feedback of reviewers on the revised version are made public) and
<b>four experimental contributions</b> that have been reviewed by the special issue editors. The experimental pieces follow a less rigorous and more playful format, an interview with commentary, a dialogue, a call for participation, and an open-ended online
article. They all invite us, the readers, to follow up their stories in dedicated online venues, or even in face-to-face meetings, and participate in the form of peer production that they advocate for.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Along similar endeavours opening up to possibility and hope in the midst of uncertainty, these twelve stories of peer production, most of them positive and encouraging, document and analyse different forms of citizen engagement and participation.
They are good examples of situated action that can provide inspiration and eventually help to build tools, toolkits, best practices, patterns, and methodologies. As editors, we learned a great deal while putting together these contributions, all different
in style, context, and methodology. We hope that they will prove inspiring and empowering for all readers as well to engage as citizens-activists, co-creators, insurgent architects, who appropriate and contextualise urban technologies and materialities to
serve local collective needs.</div>
