Description

"The theme of the lecture addresses a question: how can we design spaces in the city which encourage strangers to cooperate? To explore this question, I'll draw on research in the social sciences about cooperation, based on my book, and relate this research to current issues in urban design."

Richard Sennett, a faculty member at New York University and the London School of Economics, is the 2012 Senior Scholar of the Loeb Fellowship Program."
