They have appropriated vacant properties — and, where possible, constructed new buildings — in line with their own interests, those of civic groups, and the common good. They work to create affordable working, living, cultural and community places in an increasingly commercialised urban environment. In this publication, these civic actors are referred to as citizen professionals (CPs).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWritten by Karin Christof, with a foreword by Elke Krasny.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Idea Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52101380374875,"sku":null,"price":24.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/8951\/5850\/files\/zabriskie_CitizenProfessionals-ReclaimingCollectiveSpaces.jpg?v=1769246148","url":"https:\/\/zabriskie.de\/products\/citizen-professionals-reclaiming-collective-spaces","provider":"Zabriskie Buchladen für Kultur und Natur","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
