The publication was born out of Loos’ aversion to a superficial aestheticization of life in Austria, which he saw embodied by the “Wiener Secession” and later on “Wiener Werkstätte” and “Werkbund”. As a counterbalance, in Das Andere he showed his admiration especially for the fashion and culture of England and America. Contemporary advertisements on these subjects were included in the journal, which ran for just two issues. Beatriz Colomina supplements the reprint of Das Andere with an extensive commentary.

Summary:
Friedrich Weinwurm, a contemporary of Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe or Walter Gropius and one of the most noteworthy architects of Slovakia, can be ranked among the leading representatives of the interwar Central European architectural avant-garde. His legacy of several dozen designed and completed office buildings, single-family houses, villas and housing complexes (Nová Doba, Unitas) forms an oeuvre attracting admiration today. His progressive social program and clear principles for architectural design influenced the Slovak architectural scene of the 1920s and 1930s more than the work of any other architect. The publication contains a comparison between Weinwurm´s work and its contemporary efforts on both the local and international levels, as well as its integration into the context of the domestic and broader European architectural situation.

Un ouvrage à voix multiples pour réinventer nos récits collectifs et construire un « monde d'après » sous le signe du progrès social et du développement durable, coordonné par le laboratoire d'innovation ACIDD'Lab. 86 % des Français estiment qu'ils vont devoir changer leurs comportements du fait de la situation environnementale (étude IFOP/Solutions COP21, octobre 2015). La prise de conscience est donc bien là. Alors, pourquoi ne passons-nous pas à l'acte? Bien sûr, c'est une question d'argent ; bien sûr, il ne sera pas facile de remettre en cause nos modes de production et de consommation. Mais l'urgence est réelle : il en va de l'héritage que nous laisserons aux générations futures, de la façon dont elles pourront s'adapter et, à court terme, de notre qualité de vie et même très directement de notre santé.Comment transformer cette conscience en actions ? Ni la culpabilisation ni la recherche de boucs émissaires ne sont efficaces. Au contraire, selon les auteurs, seule l'invention d'un nouvel imaginaire positif et partagé, seule une vision créative et collective de l'avenir déclencheront les actions nécessaires pour le réaliser. C'est pourquoi de nombreuses personnalités se sont réunies ici pour participer à la construction des mythes et des imaginaires de demain.
