Collection 'Heterotopia'

Heterotopia is a concept elaborated by philosopher Michel Foucault to describe certain cultural, institutional and discursive
spaces that are somehow ‘other’: disturbing, intense, incompatible, contradictory or transforming. Heterotopias are worlds
within worlds, mirroring and yet upsetting what is outside.
The prefix hetero- is from Ancient Greek ἕτερος (héteros: other, another, different) and is combined with the Greek
morpheme τόπος (tópos: place) and means “other place”.
