Theory of architecture; Media studies; Perception

Series: Critiques

A unique collection of contemporary writings, this book explores the politics involved in the making and experiencing of architecture and cities from a cross-cultural and global perspective

Taking a broad view of the word ‘politics’, the essays address a range of questions, including:

What is the relationship between politics and the making of space? What role has theory played in reinforcing or resisting political power?

What are the political difficulties associated with working relationships? Do the products of our making construct our identity or liberate us?

A timely volume, focusing on an interdisciplinary debate on the politics of making, this is valuable reading for all students, professionals and academics interested or working in architectural theory.
