SHUM 6308
Flux Navigations: Biopolitics and Urban Aesthetics in the Contemporary SE Asian City

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2014-2015.

This course critically addresses accounts of Southeast Asia's port and delta metropolises as sites of economic and cultural transformation as part of recent power shifts in the region. It focuses on the socio-spatial problematics associated with collision between old and new forms of labor, capital, and governance in urban environments where the impacts of climate change are increasingly evident. Part of the Mellon Collaborative Studies in Architecture, Urbanism, and the Humanities, the seminar will be pedagogically linked to a parallel Expanded Practice Graduate Design Studio in Architecture whose goal is to explore meta-issues in global urbanism.
