It unpacks how the legacies of past state violence are negotiated and potentially foreclosed through the performance of future action, ultimately leading to the delimitation of political transformation and the restriction of memory activism as a space where claims for justice are meaningfully articulated.Uzayr AghaWatering Wastelands - The Punjab Colony Manual of 1926This presentation focuses on the Punjab Colony Manual of 1926 as both a technical document and a social instrument. I argue that the manual was a means by which the British colonial state systematically organised land, water, and social life in the canal colonies of western Punjab, one of the largest resettlement schemes in the region. In a close reading of the document alongside the broader context of irrigation expansion in the Indus Basin, I show how it became a tool of governance and demonstrate how its rules for planning, sanitation, mapping, and property decisively shaped new rural orders and design conventions.Madeleine MillerThe East India Company and London’s Urbanism, 1729-1858My talk provides a brief overview on London’s eighteenth and nineteenth century urban development through the lens of the East India Company. I focus on how concentrations of commercial power, capital, and elite networks shaped urban space by analysing the property holdings and investments of both the Company and its Court of Directors. Using network analysis and spatial mapping, I reconstruct the Company’s footprint across the city to trace how institutional wealth became embedded in new economic and social geographies. In doing so, the project reframes urban growth as a layered process heavily shaped by corporate influence, finance, and governance, revealing the complex entanglements of power, class, and space in the making of modern London.The City Seminar series explores current topics in the field of urban studies with a commitment to intradisciplinary perspectives, critical approaches to research, and exploring the relationships between research and practice.
