Summer academy on urban technologies

An international summer academy on technology studies, entitled 'urban infrastructure in transition: what can we learn from history', will take place in Deutschlandsberg, Austria, from 11 to 17 July.

Discussions at the academy will address a number of questions, including:
- what can historical analysis of the development and design of urban technical infrastructure systems contribute to an understanding of the current transition process?
- what can we learn from history for a sustainable design and governance of infrastructure technology networks in the present and future?

The academy will explore strategies for a more sustainable, socially and environmentally friendly design of urban technologies as an issue of technology studies and technology policy.For further information, please consult the following web address:
