How do flows of people, things, resources, natural substances encounter infrastructure, and what does that do to arrangements of citizenship? How is the state involved in these encounters and arrangements? Addressing these questions, the second dialogue in the seminar series "Flows, Infrastructure and Citizenship in India and China", is between Ritajyoti Bandhyopadhyay, Assistant Professor of Humanities and Social Sciences at Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, and Yimin Zhao, Assistant Professor of Urban Planning and Management at Renmin University of China, facilitated by Antina von Schnitzler, Associate Professor of International Affairs at The New School. While still emphasizing the triadic interface between flows, infrastructure, and citizenship, the speakers here underscore flows more, and discuss what they mean in relation to infrastructure and citizenship, and how that relationship shapes and is shaped by the state, in India and China. (Please see the full description of this series for a detailed understanding of the dialogues).
Presentation titles:
Ritajyoti Bandhyopadhyay - "Dialectics of the Capitalist Urban Process: Infrastructure and Human Action in Twentieth-Century Calcutta"
Yimin Zhao - "Flows of People, Flows of Water, and Flows of Cars: The Political Infrastructure of (non-)Citizenship”

The India China Institute (ICI) is located within The New School, in New York City, where we have existed since 2005 as a hub of international scholarship, research, and public engagement on India, China and beyond.
Our mission is to address issues of global concern through collaborative research and the formation of transnational networks of scholars and practitioners based in India, China, and elsewhere around the world. ICI is committed to studying global flows and frictions and helping direct these toward more sustainable and equitable outcomes. We believe that studying and thinking with the pasts and presents of India, China, and other countries in the global South can provide new frameworks that provide alternative perspectives to dominant understandings of global politics, culture, and design.
