Saskia SassenEvery podcast appearance, updated as new ones drop

📺 Welcome to the 44th episode of the Circular Metabolism Podcast: The role of Cities in a World Economy with Prof. Saskia Sassen 📺. 🏙️ On today’s episode we will talk circulation of flows amongst cities but also between cities and their hinterlands. This time we will not only talk about material and energy flows but also capital, information, and skilled labour flows. We will underline why cities are at the epicentre of the global economy and how they have become new geographies of extraction by grabbing resources, distributing through a global market and leaving dead land behind. 🎓 To talk about these topics today I have Saskia Sassen. She is the Robert S. Lynd Professor of Sociology at Columbia University. She is a student of cities, immigration, and states in the world economy, with inequality, gendering and digitization three key variables running though her work. She is the author of eight books and the editor or co-editor of three books including “The Global City; New York, London Tokyo, or Expulsions: Brutality and Complexity in the Global Economy”. 🙏 Enjoy this episode and before you go, please help us improve our podcast by subscribing to your favourite app including Youtube, iTunes, Spotify, or Stitcher and leave us a comment 📝 with your thoughts. 👋Hello everyone and Welcome to the Circular Metabolism podcast, the bi-weekly meeting where we have in-depth discussions with thinkers, researchers, activists, policy makers and practitioners to better understand the metabolism of our cities and how to reduce their environmental impact in a socially just and context-specific way. 👀 Youtube: https://youtu.be/02TNotnoAxQ 👂 iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/be/podcast/circular-metabolism-podcast/id1455115320 👂 Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/show/circular-metabolism-podcast 👂 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/13qH9Oj4b0yF0dBidGAdFR 👂 Google: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5hY2FzdC5jb20vcHVibGljL3Nob3dzLzYwMWMyYzNlODg4NzQ3NjIyYmY5MzRlNg Hébergé par Acast.

On the final episode of season two, Vishakha N. Desai interviews Committee on Global Thought member, and former chair, Saskia Sassen. She discusses her latest book with Mary Kaldor, Cities at War. The book examines cities as sites of contemporary warfare and insecurity. Sassen’s perspective on cities and their geographies provides new insight into how cities and their residents encounter instability and conflict, as well as the ways in which urban forms provide possibilities for countering violence. Saskia Sassen is the Robert S. Lynd Professor of Sociology and a member of the Committee for Global Thought at Columbia University. Her research and writing focuses on globalization, immigration, global cities, new technologies, and changes within the liberal state that result from current transnational conditions. Her interests include urban sociology, the sociology of transnational processes and globalization, technology, the dynamics of powerlessness in urban contexts and migration.

This public space that we experiment becomes a place in which there's a momentary condition of equality, where complex trajectories are all around and suddenly : equality.” All over the world, urbans are setting out to claim for their city's streets and parks, rediscovering the value of public space and hyper-proximity. For Saskia Sassen , "we all need a space that allows us to escape, to play, and to act”. She is the guest of this third episode of The Urban, devoted to the battle of public space. Are we witnessing the great return of the public space? How can we regulate it, share it better, make it a source of well-being and inclusion for all?

A special episode of PUSHBACK Talks! The Filmmaker and The Advocate reconnect with Saskia Sassen, prominent Professor of sociology at Columbia University, one of the world’s most important thinkers on cities, and a central character in PUSH-The film . The trio continue the conversation about why so many people can't afford their homes any longer. Going to the heart of the matter they unpack Saskia’s powerful analysis that finance – which now dominates residential real estate – is an extractive sector, like mining. Once finance has extracted what it needs it moves on without a care for what's left behind. The conversation turns to a deep probing of the meaning and relevance of “money”. When money is used by institutional investors to create new financial instruments, or to leverage more capital is it still "money" as we know it or have we exited the domain of money? The co-hosts wrap up by querying where the uber commodification of housing is going. Have we entered a new epoch where familiar rules and systems that might regulate financialization are thrown out? Will financialization eat itself up? Or will people who are pushing back force change?
