After Belonging

Architecture, Nation, Difference

Herausgeber: Pandya, Samir

Beschreibung

This book breaks new ground in demystifying the relationship between architecture, nationhood, and other forms of collective identity. It attempts to extricate the oppressive ideology of national identity entrenched within the very idea of architecture. The chapters were first published in the journal National Identities.
