This is not an atlas : a global collection of counter cartographies This Is Not an Atlas gathers more than 40 counter cartographies from all over the world. This collection shows how maps are created and transformed as a part of political struggle for critical research or in art and education: from indigenous territories in the Amazon to the anti eviction movement in San Francisco; from defending commons in Mexico to mapping refugee camps with balloons in Lebanon; from slums in Nairobi to squats in Berlin; from supporting communities in the Philippines to reporting sexual harassment in Cairo. This Is Not an Atlas seeks to inspire to document the underrepresented and to be a useful companion when becoming a counter cartographer yourself.
