How are settlement and migration enacted in relation to one another? What fictions of land and architecture live inside ‘settled’ histories of the colonized world? Through towns and camps, enclaves and ghettos, partitions and borderlands, we study the conversion of oceans, deserts, and forests into architectures, infrastructures, and territories. We ask how the homes of people and animals, now borderlands, frontiers, and wastelands, have been remembered and narrated. Within these forms and narratives live concept histories of settlement.
