Description
The New Architectural Pragmatism collects the most provocative, penetrating, and influential attempts by leading theorists and practitioners in the field to define what architectural practice should be at the beginning of the 21st century. Written in the aftermath of modernisms utopian impulse and postmodernisms detached playfulness, the essays gathered here express and critique a new spirit of cultural and political engagement with contemporary society.
Interrogating the architects social responsibility, the contributors deliberate about how much we should ask of architecture and suggest that in the coming century architecture must be at once flexible and robust, responsive and self-directed.
