What does a sustainable urban future look like? Social anthropologist Felix Ringel has spent years studying the urban communities of post-industrial cities in Germany – communities who have first needed to regain a sense of future, before then looking at what work might be necessary to make those futures a reality. Hope is useful, but we need determination too. In this episode, Felix tells us about passionate youth councils, imaginative planning, and how local people turned an entire apartment block into a work of collective art – before the bulldozers arrived.
