De Stadsoorlog Amsterdam '80

De Stadsoorlog Amsterdam '80' documents the intense social and political friction in Amsterdam during 1980, a period marked by the 'Stadsoorlog' (City War) involving the 'krakers' (squatters) movement. The publication features photography by Steye Raviez and Ronald Hoeben, who provide a documentary reportage of the confrontations between the squatting community, property owners, and the police. The visual content captures specific scenes of urban unrest, including the actions of the 'mobiele eenheid' (mobile units) and the 'Haagse post' of the police. Accompanied by analysis from author Henk Hofland, the book explores the power dynamics and the physical manifestations of the squatting crisis. Published by Sijthoff in 1981, this work serves as a factual record of the street-level tensions and the atmosphere of the city during this era of significant social upheaval.
