Publications

Our range of publications explore how attempts to implement infrastructure corridor projects is reshaping urban-regional space, environments, governance and politics worldwide through the corridorisation logic. Our writing across a range of formats critically examines political ecologies, planning, and everyday lives. Through academic articles, edited book, public reports and other forms of writing we attempt to establish various conceptual and political platforms for future research agendas.
