Southeast Asia Research Seminar Series
Urban Ecologies on the Edge: Making Manila's Resource Frontier
In this presentation, Associate Professor Kristian Karlo Saguin examines ubranisation as a frontier-making process through stories from Metro Manila in the Philippines and its convenient resource frontier, Laguna Lake. Drawing from ethnographic and historical accounts in and beyond the city, Associate Professor Saguin tracks two particular resource flows - fish and floodwaters - that have shaped Manila’s twentieth century urban development and environmental trajectory. Making visible the constellation of actors, practices, desires and materialities brought together to deliver these vital resource flows for the city underscores the shifting assemblages and politics that sustain life in the city and produce imaginaries for possible urban futures.
