Urban imaginaries, sensory politics, and the moral life of cities: honouring the legacy of C.P. Pow (1974–2021)

Exact date and time yet to be announced.

Urban Studies Foundation session at the 2025 International Conference on China Urban Development

7-8 July 2025, University College London (UCL)

At this year’s International Conference on China Urban Development in London, the Urban Studies Foundation will host a session in memory of C.P. Pow – colleague, collaborator, and former trustee – whose intellectual generosity and methodological attentiveness continue to shape the ways we study, inhabit, and imagine cities.

The session will mark the launch of a curated collection of Pow’s writings, produced and funded by the Urban Studies Foundation: C.P. Pow: selected essays (2025)

Framed as a collective conversation, it will bring together those whose own scholarship has been shaped by Pow’s work on sensory politics, moral geographies, ecological urbanism, and the circulation of planning expertise – and those who wish to carry his legacy forward in critical, situated, and generous ways.

This session is organised by Prof Deljana Iossifova, and enquiries may be sent to: grants@urbanstudiesfoundation.org
