This book is a comparative analysis of the architecture of central
public spaces of capital cities in Central and Eastern Europe
during the period of their authoritarian and post-authoritarian
development. It demonstrates that national identity transformations
cause structural changes in urban public spaces, and theorises
identity and national identity within urban planning in order to
explain the influence of historical, cultural, mental, social as
well as ideological and political conditions on the processes of
shaping and perceiving the architecture of public space. The book
addresses the process of shaping and restructuring historic centres
of European capital cities of Kiev, Moscow, Berlin, and Warsaw,
which developed under authoritarian regime conditions throughout
the 20th century and were characterised by ideological determinism
and the influence of state ideology and politics on the
architecture of public spaces. The book will be useful for urban
planners, architects, land management specialists, art historians,
political scientists, and readers interested in the theory and
history of cities, the fundamentals of urban planning and
architecture, and the planning of cities and public spaces.
