This miniseries of the Architectural History podcast has been produced to mark the SAHGB Conference 2023: 'Constructing Coloniality: British Imperialism and the Built Environment'. The conference is taking place from the 12th–14th May 2023, and tickets may still be available: https://www.sahgb.org.uk/whatson/annual-conference-constructing-coloniality.

The conference takes as its theme the coloniality of architecture and heritage in relation to the British Empire, from the early years of expansionism and the escalation of the slave trade in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, through the physical and political force wielded in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and the development of racial capitalism, to the subsequent and ongoing struggles for independence, freedom and justice.

In this episode we spoke to Julie Willis and Soon-Tzu Speechley about their paper 'Professional entanglements: British colonial networks of architecture', which considers the complex connections and hierarchies between architects working in south-east Asia during the colonial period.

This podcast is produced by Front Ear Podcasts.
