Drawing on science and technology studies and urban studies, Nicolas Zehner explores the question of who gets to imagine what kinds of urban-regional futures by investigating the emergence and early implementation of this large, multi-stakeholder urban-regional development project. Demonstrating the growing influence of universities in shaping desirable futures, he introduces the notion of \"dataist modernity\" to characterise the contemporary relationship between science, technology and urban planning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNicolas Zehner\u003c\/b\u003e (Dr.) is a postdoctoral researcher at the Collaborative Research Center 1265 »Re-Figuration of Spaces« at Technische Universität Berlin, as well as associated researcher at Weizenbaum Institute.
