The first of CTlab’s urban conflict themed 2009 symposia kicks off next week, on Tuesday, 10 March, focusing on Martin Coward’s recent book, Urbicide: The Politics of Urban Destruction (Routledge: 2008). Routledge has kindly agreed to provide participants with softcopy of the text, and we’ve got a great line up of participants: Martin Coward (Sussex University), Bryan Finoki (Subtopia), Stephen Graham (University of Durham), Tony Waters (Chico State), Marc Tyrrell (Carleton University), John Matthew Barlow (Concordia University), and Antoine Bousquet (Birkbeck College, London). Stay tuned; first posts, from Urbicide author Martin Coward, will appear late on Tuesday.
