My article 'Distant time: The future of urbanisation from ‘there’ and ‘then’ @DialoguesHG
Through planning archives of Shimla, India, I conceptualise how temporal ordering of a colonial state is reflected in postcolonial imaginaries of smart urban futures

Looking forward to discussing this Dialogue with our grad students next week @urban_gsu

By focusing on incremental and #LongRangePlanning, @mrglassphd.bsky.social and @JP_Addie assess #infrastructure as material and political objects of analysis that often delineate the socio-spatial parameters of collective infrastructural imaginaries

Through a case study of the #SouthwestPennsylvania Commission, @mrglassphd.bsky.social and @JP_Addie question how #InfrastructureFutures are understood and materialised by the region’s central planning stakeholders

[Jean-Paul Addie @JP_Addie]

Our analysis demonstrates how solutions proffered by urban infrastructure are confounded by regional dynamics, but also identify regional approaches that might foster equitable futures within the spatial envelopes created through 'infrastructural regionalism' 3/

[Jean-Paul Addie @JP_Addie]

We make the case for ‘seeing like a region’ when examining infrastructural change, as infrastructure systems regularly transcend the boundaries of urban space and hence become enmeshed in the goals of broader constituencies and interests. 2/

New paper with Michael Glass now out in @USJ_online! Through a case study of the Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission, we question how infrastructural #futures are understood and materialized by the region’s central planning stakeholders... 1/
