Race and Modern Architecture: A Critical History from the Enlightenment to the Present (Culture Politics & the Built Environment)
Race and Modern Architecture is a groundbreaking volume that sheds light on the underexplored relationship between race and architecture in Europe, North America, and beyond since the 18th century.
This book challenges the standard association of modern architecture with universal emancipation and progress by revealing how racial thinking has intimately shaped key concepts of modern culture, including freedom, revolution, character, national style, progress, hybridity, climate, representation, and radicalism.
Through a nuanced analysis of architectural works from neoclassical government buildings to contemporary housing projects for immigrants, Race and Modern Architecture complicates and revises our understanding of the discipline's history.
With contributions from leading architectural historians Irene Cheng, Charles L.
Davis II, and Mabel O.
Wilson, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the complex intersections of race, architecture, and culture.
