“Power –whether political, economic, or social – treats urban and architectural form as a means rather than an end in itself. Revealing the ways in which this power is made manifest in built form takes an essential first step for any responsible intervention in the contemporary city. The next step is to understand the specific mechanism of the power structure at play in order to subvert it or operate within it”. (Rafi Segal, 2007)
