Call for papers - Journeys, weavings, hybridizations: a planetary history of architecture and urbanism

Until April 30, 2025.

The journal Transversale histoire architecture urbain paysage is calling for articles for its ninth issue on the theme of "Pathways, interweaving, hybridization: a global history of architecture and urbanism."
This issue is coordinated by Marie Gaimard (ATE, ENSA Normandie), Gilles-Antoine Langlois, and Léonore Losserand (EVCAU, ENSA Paris-Val-de-Seine).

This call for papers proposes an approach to architectural "journeys", "hybridizations" and "weavings" without chronological boundaries, based on 3 entries:

1/ the journeys and exchanges between people who have designed and built both in their native country and in the other country;
2/observation of the measures and processes involved in weaving and hybridization;
3/ amore theoretical approach to the "architecture of exchange", which is both situated and contextualized, even though it stems from fields where the construction of historical time is fundamentally different.

Articles must be submitted by April 30, 2025.
More information on thecall for contributions and the editorial charter.

Starting with issue no. 9, thecross-disciplinary journal is published by ENSA Paris-Val-de-Seine/EVCAU andENSA Normandie, distributed by MSH Paris.
