Assembling Cities is an international summer school taking place at the ETH Zurich (Switzerland) on September 18-21, 2016. It aims to provide students with a set of concepts and methods attuned to tracing and writing the assembling (formation, negotiation and stabilization) of cities in everyday, professional and research practice. We invite applications from recent graduates, PhD students and post-doc researchers interested in discussing how STS can inspire problematizations, descriptions and formulations of spatial planning and urban issues. 

Confirmed keynote speakers are Simone Abram, Laura Lieto, Alain Bovet, and Karl Palmås.

The summer school is organized and funded by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) and Zurich (ETHZ).
