Nitin Bathla

I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Geography at UZH and a lecturer in the Department of Architecture at ETH Zürich.
I am the author of the award-winning book Researching Otherwise: Pluriversal Methodologies in Landscape and Urban Studies and the incoming Debates and Interventions editor at the journal Urban Geography. My teaching and research focus on urban studies and political ecology, with particular attention to commoning, landscape restoration, labour, and infrastructure geography. As part of the Spotlight project at UZH, I will be investigating the political ecology of light pollution in Switzerland. My transdisciplinary and pluriversal research approaches actively combine academic inquiry with artistic practices such as filmmaking and socially engaged art. My 2020 ethnographic feature-length film, Not Just Roads, centred on India’s ongoing highway program. The film premiered at several major film festivals and won the SAH Film Award in 2022, among other notable accolades.
