Four major communities, four buildings constructing their
identities in the contested urban space of Jerusalem. This book
examines a fascinating and critical epoch in the architectural
history of Jerusalem. It proposes a fresh and analytical discussion
of British Mandate-era architecture by studying four buildings that
have had a lasting impact on Jerusalem's built environment.
Applying relational history methodology, the book reveals how these
building projects evolved as an outcome of cross-cultural
influences and relations among the British, American,
Jewish-Zionist and Muslim-Palestinian communities. Further, the
building and design processes behind these structures give new
perspectives on the adaptation of modern architecture in the Middle
East and the negotiation of historicism and vernacular architecture
during the first half of the 20th century.
