In this first comprehensive work in English to describe the
building of Latin America's capital cities in the postcolonial
period, Arturo Almandoz and his contributors demonstrate how
Europe, and France in particular, shaped their culture,
architecture and planning until the United States began to play a
part in the 1930s. A series of case studies are devoted to
individual cities, each extensively illustrated and written by
authorities on the city concerned. Providing a historical survey of
Latin American urban development, this book also offers a new
perspective on international planning.
