Editorship Elisabeth Blum, Jesko Fezer, Gunther Fischer, Angelika
Schnell Not unjustly referred to as legendary, this series of books
on the history and theory of architecture and urban development was
founded in 1963 by Ulrich Conrads, who was joined by Peter Neitzke
as a co-editor of the series in the early 1980s. Now numbering over
150 titles, it is the most comprehensive German-language book
series covering these fields. Following the deaths of the two
longtime editors Ulrich Conrads (2013) and Peter Neitzke (2015), a
new editorial committee was formed to continue their work:
Elisabeth Blum, Jesko Fezer, Gunther Fischer and Angelika Schnell.
As the future editors of this series, it is our aim to maintain the
course set by our forerunners. The series has fulfilled its
original aim of taking stock of the constructional and urban
planning ideas and realizations formulated and achieved over the
twentieth century in exemplary fashion. The Bauwelt Fundament
series actually represents a history of ideas in the fields of
planning and building that extends from the beginning of the
twentieth century into the present. The second objective of the
series, one that is anchored in its very name, will also continue
to guide the development of the series, namely the publication of
foundational thought - authoritative and fundamental - rather than
passing opinion, of theses and polemics relating to the burning
architectural and urban planning themes of the time. Penetrating
complex interrelationships and probing them with systematic
analysis provides the prerequisite for fruitful discourse and
ongoing debate. As a forum for such discourses and contributions,
the Bauwelt Fundamente series is maintaining its focus on the areas
of architecture and urbanism, supplementing it with the always
necessary historical investigation of important questions and texts
and its extension into other cultural and social fields. A strong
international orientation and the desire for more female authors
are self-evident in such a context. The original graphic design
approach taken by Helmut Lortz to the series is being maintained.
As is fitting for a working library, Bauwelt Fundamente titles
remain simply designed, using black and white for the logo, the
images on the front and back, and the eleven-line summary of the
volume's contents. This is indicative of the broad orientation of
Bauwelt Fundamente to all those interested in the cultural and
social development that provides the context for the creation of
cities, houses and other objects, which in turn create contexts for
the world. "Architects, it is said - or hoped - have always been
interested in the world beyond the boundaries of their profession."

Rucken zur Gesellschaft (Not with one's back to society) given to
mark the fiftieth anniversary of Bauwelt Fundamente in Berlin,
2013.
