Call for chapter proposals - Edited collection “Post-Socialist Urban Infrastructures”

The proposed collection departs from the observation that the existing literature on post-socialist urban infrastructures is, firstly, mainly focused on energy; secondly, scattered among multiple topics and, thirdly, lacking relation to the existing and expanding theoretical literature on infrastructures (e.g., Amin, 2014; Graham & Marvin, 2001; Graham & McFarlane, 2014). 
This collection of articles aims to provide a more comprehensive and theoretically-substantiated framework regarding urban infrastructures, which have both been shaped by and have contributed to shape the post-socialist transformation. Analysing infrastructure is thus also a way to approach post-socialist cities more generally.
