Overview

Barcelona is a living body. An organism made up of neighborhoods as its organs, citizens as its cells, and institutions that should serve as its nervous system. But today this body breathes with difficulty: the city has become grey, exhausted, and sick. How did we get here? Through erratic political decisions, institutions abandoning their duty, and a city model that has lost touch with its people. Colau, Collboni, and others have left behind an urban disorder that erodes everyday life. This book is not only a diagnosis: it is also a proposal. From a citizen's perspective, with academic rigor, it sets out a decalogue of principles to revive a living Barcelona, and presents innovative ideas such as the city understood as a body and the denunciation of its greyfication. The Wounded Body of Barcelona is both essay and call to action: a manifesto to awaken consciences and a tool to build the future. An invitation to return power to those who should never have lost it: the citizens.
