Abstract
This essay discusses critical walking as a mobile, performative, and participatory practice employed in spatial research. It argues that in order to perform critical walks one must be disloyal to conventional spatial disciplines, to the city-ism in urban research, and finally to the practice of walking itself. Through a set of etymological inquiries, it emphasizes the connection between being an expeditioner and becoming a guest in the peripheral areas of one’s hometown. Ultimately, it claims that critical walking is in fact the incessant becoming-of-a-guestin diverse contexts which can be achieved through what is referred to as auto-infidelity. Show more
