Prof. Milica Topalovic & Prof. Marc Angélil, ETH Zürich Department of Architecture


The event is part of the lecture series
SESSIONS ON TERRITORY­—URBANISM BEYOND NEOLIBERALISM


SESSIONS ON TERRITORY is a series of public debates on the political economy of architecture and territory within and beyond the neoliberal order. The seminar’s objective is to unravel forces at work in the formation and the perception of the contemporary city, and, as importantly, to spur debates that challenge the status quo. Every intervention by a guest speaker will be followed by a panel discussion with invited respondents. This semester’s series on POWER constitutes the first installment of Sessions on Territory—Urbanism Beyond Neoliberalism.

The Sessions on Territory are a collaboration between the professorships of Marc Angelil and Milica Topalovic.

TRACES OF THE MORE–THAN–NEOLIBERAL
Jennifer Robinson with Christian Schmid & Benedikt Korf


Bringing the more-than-neoliberal into focus requires a move beyond the practice of tracking neoliberal policies and their localisation, observing their transformation and noting that in the process they reinvigorate the global “syndrome” of neoliberalisation. This way, we only ever “see” neoliberalisation. In this paper I will explore how taking a more explicitly comparative approach to tracing connections between places can bring into view elements of urban processes which a policy mobilities perspective notes but doesn’t treat as a basis for wider analytical insights. Thus, important features of urban processes might be viewed as “fellow travellers” or local variation, and assigned to a non-theoretical series of particular observations. Treating connections as a foundation or starting point for comparison can help to build stronger theoretical and political insights concerning a wider range of urban processes.
