Book Description:
Not in recent memory has architecture figured so powerfully in the public imagination as a key to understanding and a means of acting in the face of an event as inconceivable as the attacks of September 11, 2001. Which is to say that this event in the United States has reframed an old question: In what ways can architecture contribute to, influence, or even shape a public realm that represents more than the amorphous sum of individual wills or the triumph of monopoly capitalism? Through a historical and philosophical analysis of partially related precedents, Anthony Vidler places the current state of architectural discourse on the public realm in light of immediate needs and necessities. Essays by Mireille Roddier. Paperback, 6.5 x 9 in./80 pgs / 8 color and 5 b & w.
