Society for the Promotion of Urban Discussion 14th meeting
11 Mar 2019, 13:00 – 18:00
UCL Urban Laboratory hosts the fourteenth meeting of the Society for the Promotion of Urban Discussion (SPUD) on Monday 11 March, in coordination with Prof Michael Hebbert.
The aim of SPUD is to bring together scholars from a number of disciplines to discuss the interaction between the social and the physical changes that occurred in British cities during the post-war period. There will be three papers, with plenty of time for discussion.
The meeting is open to SPUD members and to a limited number of UCL staff and research students. If you would like to attend, RSVP with the organiser Otto Saumarez Smith - otto.saumarez-smith@warwick.ac.uk, and please state whether you are able to come to lunch or/and dinner.
