IASTE 2014 ¿CUYA TRADICIÓN? Past IASTE conferences have called on scholars to consider tradition’s relationship to development, utopia, andWHOSE most recently, myth. In response, scholars have advanced multiple perspectives regarding the construction of traditions in space and place. Behind the construction or deconstruction of any tradition also lies the subject,TRADISI SIAPA? whose interests in the present are often hidden. To reveal this process of agency, one may ask: tradition, by whom? In examining themes of authorship and subjectivity, this conference will seek to uncover in what manner, 誰 の 伝 統? for what reason, by whom, to what effect, and during what intervals traditions have been deployed with CUJA TRADIÇÃO? regard to the built environment. Our current period of globalization has led to the flexible reinterpretation ofTRADI TION? traditions via the mass media for reasons of power and profit. A proliferation of environments, for example, adopt traditional forms of one place and period in a completely different contextual setting, while new design KiMiN GELENEGi? traditions may privilege image over experience. At the same time, the advent of new mobile technologies with the power to compress and distort traditional configurations of space and time has allowed for the flourishing of new, empowering practices. Such practices have led to new traditions of urban resistance and uprisings that YANG TRADISI? travel fluidly between diverse locales and give voice to certain populations previously excluded. Questions of power, the other, and changing configurations of time and space will open up discussions of the ways in which traditional practices shape the histories and futures of built environments. The conference is divided into three tracks: WHO Power and the Construction of Traditions; WHAT Place and the Anchoring of Traditions; WHERE Mobility and the Reimagination of Traditions.
