Produktbeschreibung

What World War Imeant for architecture and urbanism writ large More than one hundredyears after the conclusion of the First World War, the edited collection Statesof Emergency. Architecture, Urbanism, and the First World War reassesseswhat that cataclysmic global conflict meant for architecture and urbanism froma human, social, economic, and cultural perspective. Chapters probe howunderdevelopment and economic collapse manifested spatially, how militarytechnologies were repurposed by civilians, and how cultures of education, care,and memory emerged from battle. The collection places an emphasis on thevarious states of emergency as experienced by combatants and civilians acrossfive continents-from refugee camps to military installations, villages tocapital cities-thus uncovering the role architecture played in mitigating andexacerbating the everyday tragedy of war.
