Architecture in Development Systems and the Emergence of the Global South

This extensive, edited volume investigates how architects, planners, and other related experts responded to the contexts and discourses of "development" after WWII. The essays encompass countries as diverse as Israel, Ghana, Greece, Belgium, France, India, Mexico, the United States, Venezuela, the Philippines, South Korea, Sierra Leone, Singapore, Turkey, Cyprus, Iraq, Zambia, and Canada. The subject matter is increasingly taught as part of a broader turn to globalize the field of architecture studies, incorporating hitherto unacknowledged geographies primarily from the global south, with a focus on how architecture production is part of technical, economic, and political processes.
