CALLS FOR PAPERS

Call for Participants (CfP) Conference & ECRs Mentoring Programme
“Overlooked Cities in Asia: Interrogating blind fields in urban knowledges and praxes”

Bandung, Indonesia, 6-8 September 2023
Deadline: 19 May 2023, 23.59 Western Indonesian time (GMT+7)
Sponsored by the Urban Studies Foundation’s Seminar Series Award, this event will be the first in a series of academic events on “Overlooked Cities: Thinking and doing global urban studies differently.” The conference aims to facilitate a collective critique of the indifferent views on Asian cities that are marginalised, off-the-map, and under-theorised due to the logics of domination and control. It seeks to sharpen and expand post- and de-colonial interventions that shift the focus of global urban studies to the urban majority, articulating under-studied and under-represented spaces, knowledge, and practices in the Asian context.
