Workshop "The City, the Nation and the World around 1900": Call for Papers, March 1
The City, the Nation and the World around 1900: Imperial Intersections and Colonial Connections
History Workshop
Berlin | June 10-12, 2010
Keynote: Prof. David Gilbert (Royal Holloway, University of London)
Organized by TGK Fellows Sasha Disko and Tim Opitz, the three-day workshop aims at pinpointing the various intersections and connections of a globalizing and nationalizing world, especially in terms of the imperial and the colonial, within the city. In an attempt to further this discussion of relational power and overlapping scales of analysis in the history of the urban form broadly around 1900, they invite proposals from scholars working in all geographic areas.

Re-Imagining Berlin am 19. März
Re-Imagining Berlin from Los Angeles?
A Transatlantic Conversation about Sustainable Urban Design, Culture-Led Urban Revitalization & Transit-Oriented Development
Friday, March 19, 2010 | 3-8pm | TU Berlin, Architecture Building
Twenty years ago, Berlin re-emerged as the reunified capital of Germany. Many commemorative events have already contemplated the city's large- scale transformations since then and speculated about Berlin's urban future in the decades to come. Yet many of these debates remain Berlin-centric and draw little inspiration from people and places from outside the German capital.
"Reimagining Berlin from LA," organized by the DFG Noether Group on Urban Mega-Projects, CMS, and the Master Program in Urban Design & Habitat Unit (TU), relocates the starting point of the conversation twenty travel-hours west to Berlin's American Sister City Los Angeles. It presents initial results from an international exchange initiative bringing together students from Berlin and Los Angeles to think creatively about the ongoing redevelopment of Berlin's reunified city center, focusing on the areas around the new Central Station. The event also presents an Urban Planning Art Installation featuring Berlin & LA, and it invites practitioners, artists, academics and the general public to join in a trans-disciplinary conversation on urban space(s).

Berlin steht vor neuen Herausforderungen: Benachteiligten Quartieren, neuen Wasserlagen, ehemaligen und zukünftigen Flughäfen und deren Einbindung in die Stadt sowie dem zunehmenden Tourismus. Der Workshop Beyond Planwerk Innenstadt bot am 28./29. Januar eine neue Plattform für eine zukunftsweisende, übergreifende Diskussion der Berliner Stadtentwicklung und entwickelte zu wichtigen Fragestellungen der städtebaulichen Entwicklung Berlins Konzepte unter besonderer Einbeziehung des wissenschaftlichen und planerischen Nachwuchses.
