Résumé:
How can “Nordic Modernism” be defined? Did German city planners look to the North for inspiration after the Second World War? In what way did their social model affect architecture and city planning in the Nordic countries? What specific features characterize architecture and town planning in the Nordic countries compared with postwar Germany? The fiftieth anniversary of Interbau 1957 presented a timely opportunity to reappraise the Hansaviertel in Berlin and the entire New Building movement. In this context, Nordic conceptions of architecture and town planning seemed particularly worthy of critical reflection. The “people's home” (folkhem), as well as various national strands of modernization, architectural preferences and even geopolitical considerations play a role in the formation of the Nordic model. The contributors to this volume take the example of the Hansaviertel as an opportunity to investigate Nordic-German transfer in modernism—aesthetically, socioculturally and programmatically.

Résumé:
In Jorge Otero-Pailos' installations, the act of preservation is freed from its historic investment in stabilizing architecture. In The Ethics of Dust, he employs the cutting edge of conservation science to probe cultural, political, ethical and aesthetic definitions of architecture as it intersects with science and psychoanalysis.

Résumé:
L'urbanisme cristallise la controverse politique et technique par les utopies qu'il peut véhiculer. Les questions de la représentation prévalent souvent sur l'analyse de la complexité des démarches et de la décision. Aussi cet ouvrage explore les questions qui traversent cette activité professionnelle et cette discipline depuis une quarantaine d'années ainsi que les politiques publiques associées. Une telle rétrospective critique permet d'offrir des clés pour comprendre le présent et envisager l'avenir. Les contributions composant le livre sont signées de praticiens et de chercheurs qui enseignent au Cycle d'Urbanisme de Sciences Po, institution de référence dans le domaine, à l'occasion de son quarantième anniversaire. Ce volume traite principalement des politiques d'aménagement du territoire, de la politique de la ville, d'urbanisme stricto sensu et de l'action foncière en insistant sur les questions d'habitat. Un livre qui devrait devenir rapidement une sorte de manuel critique sur la manière dont la ville se conçoit et se met en oeuvre aujourd'hui en France.

Résumé:
This publication is a comprehensive reader analysing the role of modern architecture, city planning and consumption in the construction of the Swedish welfare state. The book draws mainly from the formative phase of the Swedish model, but also on European and American examples, and attempts to highlight the contradictions and complexities of the process of modernisation. The book provides an in-depth, multilayered account of the process of modernisation; whilst also highlighting the difficulties found. The debate is enriched from a diverse range of contributors including architects, researchers and leading academics from across the globe. It includes an introduction from Helena Mattsson and Sven-Olov Wallenstein and contributions from academics from New York’s Columbia University and London’s UCL; alongside architects in the field. The essays explore the construction of the welfare state, contextualising this in relation to the political and social factors of the time, consumers and spectacles — from housing to national marketing programmes. Specific case studies are featured and the reader ends with a section dealing with the more general problem of historiography.

Résumé:
Nikolaus Pevsner was the best known and most important architectural historian of the twentieth century, admired for dedicating his career to areas of English architecture that had never been considered before. But this English specialist and honorary Englishman, knighted in 1969, only came to England at the age of 31. He had been born and brought up in Germany, didn’t imagine that English architecture would become his life’s focus, and had no wish to move to England even when forced from teaching by the Nazis. Amplified by analyses of Pevsner’s writings and a wealth of personal memories, it is the first book to explain one of England’s first celebrity scholars.

Résumé:
Comics emerged parallel to, and in several ways intertwined with, the development of modern urban mass societies at the turn of the 20th century. On the one hand, urban topoi, self-portrayals, forms of urban cultural memories, and variant readings of the city (strolling, advertising, architecture, detective stories, mass phenomena, street life, etc.) are all incorporated into comics. On the other hand, comics have unique abilities to capture urban space and city life because of their hybrid nature, consisting of words, pictures, and sequences. These formal aspects of comics are also to be found within the cityscape itself: one can see the influence of comic book aesthetics all around us today.

La crise des banlieues, la détérioration de l'environnement, l'épuisement des ressources, tout devrait nous pousser à réagir pour éviter que nos villes deviennent inhabitables.
