The book Evasions of Power: On the Architecture of Adjustment (published by Slought) furthers ongoing discourse about human rights, geopolitical conflict, and territorial sovereignty, with contributions from an array of practitioners from fields including art, literature, philosophy, and architecture. Exploring overlooked urban zones, state borders, enclaves, and extra-territorial sites throughout the world, contributors probed contemporary perspectives on power and its evasions. The publication is the culmination of a 2007 symposium and subsequent research initiative jointly organized by Katherine Carl, Aaron Levy, and Srdjan Jovanovic Weiss. This initiative finds its physical form as a book that also functions as a resource for practitioners and proposes a series of extraordinary adjustments to ongoing discourses and practices regarding human rights, geopolitical conflict, and territorial sovereignty.
