AbstractThis chapter introduces the question ‘Can assemblage urbanism contribute to the fight for ‘the right to the city?’ with a reflection on the role of a hybrid forum and the ‘Hybrid City’. It first addresses the ongoing confrontation between assemblage urbanists and ‘the right to the city’ scholars, the critical urban theorists — focusing on the origin of the debate, arguments and main academics involved. Subsequently, the discussion presented here outlines the main potentials of the assemblage urbanism perspective on ‘hybrid forums’ as an instrument for the fight for ‘the right to the city’. Furthermore, the paper presents a hybrid forum, Institute for (X), as a case illustration of a Hybrid City. Institute for (X) is a cultural platform for young artists and entrepreneurs where culture is produced through an open network of creative experimentations, innovative solutions and constant learning opportunities. The anthropologic investigation of this case study found that the community involved felt strongly about the area and defended its character as positive and good, for them and the city. This chapter questions if an assemblage perspective of (X) enables an understanding of a constant transformation of the area that makes it a sizzling representation of the kind of resilient character cities must learn to adopt, in the face of our fast-changing world.
