Abstract

The fifteenth biennial conference of the Australasian urban history/planning history group was convened by the School of Architecture, Environments and Design at the University of Tasmania at Inveresk in Launceston, Tasmania from 5–7 February 2020. The conference was a stimulating event that included 56 presentations attended by more than 70 delegates who showed a genuine interest in extending fields of enquiry and supporting each other in the research environment. Reflecting the island location, the conference theme was ‘Edge Conditions: invented peripheries, hidden centres’, with the Welcome to Country and invited speakers revealing Launceston’s position as central to the Australian experience, rather than on the often imagined periphery. It was a lively and dynamic platform for the exchange of knowledge with a wide variety of presentations that approached the significance of edge and periphery in Australasian and global urban development with intellectually nimble interpretations, imaginative insight, and mutual encouragement.
