TL;DR: In this article, the authors define the Practical Zionism territorial strategy as a Settle and Rule mechanism that evolved through four periods of development, from the prestate era to the post-state era.
Abstract: Settling in Palestine is an integral part of the national revival of the Jewish nation, which eventually led to the establishment of the state of Israel. This paper defines the Practical Zionism territorial strategy as a Settle and Rule mechanism that evolved through four periods of development, from the pre-state era to the post-state era: first, the agricultural settlements of the 1920s and 1930s (cultivate and rule); second, the 1950s’ industrial towns (industrialize and rule); third, the suburbs of the 1980s (suburbanize and rule) and; and fourth, the recent corporate-led development (financialize and rule). This paper argues that the national settlement mission transformed according to the changes in the modes of production and the interests of the ruling hegemony. Therefore, it focuses on four different national plans for the frontier area of the Galilee and analyses the layout of the proposed new settlements and the architecture of the housing units.

TL;DR: The authors argue that the model of the neoliberal university is unsustainable if left to continue in its current form, and which Covid-19 has done little to decelerate or dismantle.
Abstract: This article examines the conditions that have given rise to the neoliberal university, along with the conditions of being a subject of such an institution – whether as educator, student, or manager on the shop-floor of the “edufactory.” Where the liberal university was recognized as a space for critical thought, slow contemplation and transformative becoming for both student and university worker, the imperative of the neoliberal university is to continuously increase performance – measurable in ultimately economic terms, imposing a new auditable disciplining, and quickening pace, of learning, thinking and working. We argue that the model of the neoliberal university is unsustainable if left to continue in its current form, and which Covid-19 has done little to decelerate or dismantle. There is an urgent need to resist, rethink, and reclaim the space to learn/think/work.

TL;DR: In this paper, the project of autonomy in architecture is examined in the context of disciplinary blurrings and redefinitions, and the need for a strong definition of the discipline of architecture necessarily means that it is defined in the traditional Kantian transcendental sense.
Abstract: In the context of disciplinary blurrings and redefinitions, this essay interrogates the project of autonomy in architecture. It asks whether the need for a strong definition of the discipline of architecture necessarily means that it is defined in the traditional Kantian transcendental sense. Four alternatives to this strong definition are essayed: an appeal to moral autonomy; a rejection of autonomy in the name of cultural and historical continuity; a dialectical or quasi-autonomy; and finally the supposed overturning of critical autonomy in Somol and Whiting’s Doppler-effect paper. All these positions proceed on the basis of the concept of unity, and in conclusion, the work of Deleuze and Foucault is utilized to undermine this prejudice and to suggest another way to define architecture as a strong discipline: as a resilient formation, an open and forever problematic set of relations.
