NMDD 3880 L21 - Designing Smart Cities For Social Justice
Summer Session II, July 5 - August 4, 2022
Lincoln Center, Hybrid: TWTh, 01:00PM - 05:00PMThis class combines a critical introduction to the promises and perils of the smart city with a community-engaged learning and design project.

While much of smart urban rhetoric focuses on designing efficient and globally competitive cities through data-driven platforms, critics argue it has led to stepped-up surveillance, discrimination, segregation, and economic inequality in urban environments. Through class readings, group discussions, and engagement with the Lincoln Square community, students consider how a smart urban design oriented towards social justice could help rework flows of wealth, power, and privilege in New York City.
