Expos as Great Urban Projects, Present and Future is the outcome of a multiyear research initiative conducted at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design in collaboration with the Bureau International des Expositions (BIE), the intergovernmental organization that oversees and regulates international expos. The research was carried out by a multidisciplinary team led by Joan Busquets, Martin Bucksbaum Professor, Dingliang Yang and Michael Keller, with the assistance of thirty GSD students between 2018 and 2023.
This two-volume, 1,300-page publication offers a comprehensive study of the world expo as a transformative urban phenomenon. Surveying more than a century and a half of expositions, it positions the expo as a distinct urban genre--one that has consistently reshaped cities, catalyzed development in new areas, and enabled projects that conventional planning processes alone often fail to advance. The resulting cultural, spatial, and infrastructural legacies demonstrate that expos have long operated as significant agents of urban change across continents.
