adam_text | Contents Some Numbers 6 The Cycle of’92 and the Olympic Hangover — Jordi Amat The 1992 Olympic Games represented an unrepeatable model for growth, and yet the city has stubbornly attempted to replicate it, leaving a trail of failures in its wake and a population losing patience with the high cost of living. 9 Is This the World’s Most Radical Mayor? — Dan Hancox Barcelona mayor Ada Colau has brought social activism into the city’s corridors of power. A champion of the fight against mass tourism and a leading figure of the new Spanish and European left, has she been able to keep her promise of a new approach to politics that works for the city’s people? 27 The Art of Observing Bridges from Below — Laura Ferrero To see the world from a different perspective is the goal of a somewhat unusuaiyiduewr, whose wanderings we follow along the twenty-four stops of Line 9 of the Barcelona Metro. Far from the same old tourist itineraries, our wanderer discovers something more about himself and the city. 43 Superblock 503 — Gabi Martinez The blocks that make up the grid of streets in the Eixample district turned out to be perfect for cars, transforming Barcelona into a noisy, polluted city. But they also lend themselves to a new experiment in low-cost urbanism, the superblock, which aims to ‘pacify’ the city’s spaces and return them to the people. 57 El Raval: The Capital of a Country that Doesn’t Exist — Najat El Hachmi Catalans have always associated El Raval with freedom, a place to escape from bourgeois life into a colourful souk, but, as this exploration of Barcelona’s
quintessentially multi-ethnic neighbourhood shows us, those who live there often do so out of necessity rather than choice. 75 The Mapping of Paradise — Enrique Vila-Matas We all have a street we have walked down a thousand times, where everything has a name. For Enrique Vila-Matas it is the Paseo de San Juan. In two pieces written thirty years apart, he revisits the landscape of his childhood, drawing a literary memory map and refamiliarising himself with his city following the forced isolation of the pandemic. 91
Catalonia: A European History — Pere Almeda i Samaranch 105 Barcelona was the main stage for the conflict between the Catalan and Spanish governments that culminated in the unrecognised referendum of 2017. To understand how this came about, you have to look at the history of Catalonia and perhaps rethink the very idea of the nation state. Barcelona, Festival City — Nando Cruz 123 The Catalan capital hosts two of the planet’s best-known music mega events: Primavera Sound and Sònar. This unique combination makes Barcelona the perfect context for a study of the impact of this type of event on the musical fabric of a city and on the lives of its residents. The Sea and Me: A Conversation on Wheels — Alicia Kopf 139 The pandemic encouraged Barcelona’s residents to acquaint themselves with their city’s beaches, often dismissed by locals as tourist traps and largely avoided. Exploring Barceloneta on roller-skates, Alicia Kopf reflects on a city and seafront that seem to be designed solely from a male perspective. Get Out There and Enjoy Yourselves — Miqui Otero ISS A sentimental journey through the history and spirit of Barça, the football club that has always been ‘more than a club’, ‘the unarmed army of Catalonia’. Offices to Let’ — Anna Pacheco 171 Does it make sense to create a high-tech district boasting innovative projects if its streets empty out in the evenings? Anna Pacheco takes us to the city’s շշ@ district, a former industrial area in the Poblenou neighbourhood, which achieves the feat of being both extremely lively and otherworldly. Cities and Names — Marina Espasa An
Author Recommends — Pola Oloixarac The Playlist — Sergio Caballero Digging Deeper 182 186 188 190 The photographs in this issue Scissor Sisters.
