Resumo(s)
Several non-profit cultural organisations opened up public spaces
during the financial crisis in Lisbon with a particular concentration
in the Anjos neighbourhood. These organisations promote
different activities, ranging from debates, exibitions, traditional
dancing, activist cinema to bars. This article aims to convey the
transformative role they played for individuals, the neighbourhood
and the city. Although facing challenges over organisational
sustainability as they are not publicly funded, these organisations
do seem to have reinvented the mission of the century-old
recreational societies through their convivial and transdisciplinary
activities. Based on documental analysis and interviews with
different actors, we map this vibrant neighbourhood and show
that these hybrid organisations represent what cultural democracy
may today look like, while providing resilient responses to the
contextual challenges.
