Today 13.1.2016 I’m at the Tampere University of Technology, Department of Architecture, for my Docent Lecture.

The subject of my lecture is: “Narrative Frames as Methodology in Urban Planning Theory: Traces of Utopia and the Bildungsroman in Contemporary Planning”

Part of my ongoing research concerning narratives in planning, with several upcoming publications.

Note: the term “docent” in the context of the Finnish academy is a title, not entirely dissimilar to Adjunct Professor or the German Privatdozent.
