Registration and Programme for 2016 Oxford City Debates #OxfordCityDebates Dear
All,

We are happy to launch the first Oxford City Debates on “Urban Governance
and its Discontents” to be held on 18-19 February 2016 at the University of
Oxford.

As a cornerstone initiative of the Oxford Programme for the Future of
Cities, we are proposing a new format for presenting and elaborating
thinking on what urban governance does, when it succeed and fails, and how
it can be re-organized to meet the challenges of the 21st century. We put
academics on the cutting edge of global urban scholarship face-to-face with
established innovative practitioners—architects, activists, policy makers,
and artists.

Through a series of rigorous yet accessible public dialogues they will
grapple with the intellectual and everyday implications of their theories
and practices on cities to produce visionary but grounded research and
intervention strategies for the future of city life.
Each debate will be preceded by a small panel of academics and
practitioners presenting papers that speak to the same key issues. Building
on the long-standing Oxford tradition of public debate, we hope to
encourage productive engagement between intellectuals and practitioners
that is too often missing from discussions of the city.

We are very excited about our programme and the line-up of presenters and
debaters, and we look forward to seeing many of you there.
