Exercises in losing control is a multi-layered tale about expropriations, mass evictions, demolitions and loss of home. The author examines the mechanisms of gentrification and the tactics of resistance against them, the social processes that take place in the demolition areas, and the experience of individuals who have suffered the loss of home. She seeks to capture the life-changing moment as well as the resulting uncertainty and instability experienced by residents of areas that undergo a transformation. Written in collaboration with scholars and victims of evictions, the book depicts urban planning processes and their imperfections, while also ing resistance and hope, exhaustion and resignation, and something that one of the book’s protagonists calls exercises in losing control.
