Destruction and Reconstruction in a Globalized World

Edición de Jane Schneider, Ida Susser ...

Although the seemingly apocalyptic scale of the World Trade Center disaster continues to haunt people across the globe, it is only the most recent example of a city tragically wounded. Cities are, in fact, perpetually caught up in cycles of degeneration and renewal. As with the WTC, from time to time these cycles are severely ruptured by a sudden, unpredictable event.

Materan Contradictions

Architecture, Preservation and Politics

de Anne Parmly Toxey ...

The resultant menagerie of forms possesses a surprising visual uniformity and an ineffable allure. Conversely, in the 1950s ... Leer más
