Asbestos
László Munteán focuses in his chapter on the asbestos content of ships slated to be scrapped in the shipbreaking yards of India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. He demonstrates how the operation of the shipbreaking industry is engrained in imperial power dynamics that continue to ravage human lives, the environment, and the economies of the Global South. While major shipyards in the West are now opening up about their illegal use of asbestos after its …

Apart from the aqueduct’s technological and archaeological asp…

Geometries of power
The circle and the square are archetypal forms of city layouts. The various patterns and combinations of these forms also reflect on inherent power relations within the social network. I start this paper with the exploration of a peculiar example of the circular layout, the fortified city of Palmanova which, in many ways, epitomizes Renaissance conceptions of ideal city planning. With the help of Michel Foucault’s Panopticon-theory, as well as Ke…
