- <p>Since the definition of the global city in the 90s, our understanding of the generic city has been that of<br>a formless, diluted, urban mass ineluctably moving towards complete homogenization and the<br>subsequent dilution of character. However, cultural positions on how city spaces are lived in today seem<br>to be more polarized than ever. The increasing mobility of population transnationally has emphasised<br>this polarization, and is mainly seen in large, global metropolises. Today, cultural conflicts are not<br>happening between regions and nations, but are unfolding at the scale of the city. In opposition to ideas<br>that understood cultural conflict as either an increasing revelation of an abstraction that alienates<br>subjectivity - as suggested by Marxist critics - or a tumultuous path before the triumph of the generic<br>and homogenous city - as in the 90s - this paper will explore the concept of “transculturation” and<br>navigate through this new socio-cultural and spatial situation in cities. According to the concept of<br>transculturation, taken from the Latin-American critical theory tradition as an alternative tool to analyse<br>cultural conflict in the city, the cultural reality of the city is always defined by specific and concrete<br>truths through a relentless process of contrast and debate and by power relations that are continuously<br>defined and redefined at various scales. Focusing on the notion of public spaces and its production as a<br>critical means of exploring urban cultural conflict today, this paper will examine the theoretical bases<br>for a culturally sustainable public space, taking as precedents both the square under the Museum of Art<br>of Sao Paulo designed by Lina Bo Bardi and the more recent and collectively designed Gillet Square in<br>Dalston, London.</p>
