DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, 26th April 2018 11:00 - 18:00\nSmall Le
 cture Theatre Department of Geography\nfree worksh
 op\n\nRecent outbreaks of dengue fever\, zika\, eb
 ola\, and other diseases remind us that the urban 
 landscapes of late modernity and processes of urba
 nization provide fresh opportunities for pathogeni
 c agents and disease vectors. At the same time\, l
 ong-standing colonial imaginaries of tropical envi
 ronments\, racialized bodies\, and pathways of con
 tagion continue to delineate technological\, spati
 al\, and regulatory norms as well as quotidian enc
 ounters. This workshop seeks to build an interdisc
 iplinary conversation about urban infectious and e
 pidemic disease through a postcolonial lens\, prob
 ing how the material\, spatial\, and political lan
 dscapes of colonial and postcolonial modernity inf
 orm ongoing vulnerabilities\, multi-species relati
 onships\, and public health frameworks.\n\nPartici
 pants include Andrea Bagnato\, Uli Beisel\, Nandin
 i Bhattacharya\, Laurie Denyer Willis\, Matthew Ga
 ndy\, Steve Hinchliffe\, Michelle Pentecost\, Nida
  Rehman\, Freddie Stephenson\, and Meike Wolf.\n\n
