"Citation is how we acknowledge our debt to those who came before; those who helped us find our way when the way was obscured because we deviated from the paths we were told to follow. [...] I cite feminists of color who have contributed to the project of naming and dismantling the institutions of patriarchal whiteness" (Ahmed, 17).

Citation politics, the complex dynamics and power structures inherent in academic referencing practices, are increasingly recognized as a crucial aspect of scholarly discourse in architecture. This two-day doctoral seminar delves into the multifaceted realm of citation politics, examining its intersections with artificial intelligence (AI), inclusion concerns, and non-orthodox materials, from conversations in the field to YouTube and TikTok videos.
