The Territories of Identity - Architecture in the Age of Evolving Globalization (Hardcover): Soumyen Bandyopadhyay, Guillermo... The Territories of Identity - Architecture in the Age of Evolving Globalization (Hardcover)
Soumyen Bandyopadhyay, Guillermo Garma Montiel
R4,933 Discovery Miles 49 330 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

The expedited globalised process of exchange and new forms of cultural production have transformed old established notions of identity, calling into question their conceptual foundations. This book explores the spatial and representational dimension of this phenomenon, by addressing how the reshaping of the key themes of place, architecture and memory are altering the nature, as well as, our understanding of identity. Cutting across boundaries, the book drives discussion of identity beyond the well-worn concern for its loss within a globalised context, and importantly provides links between identity, place, memory and representation in architecture. Examining a range of case studies from Australia, Germany, India, Japan, Mexico, Poland, Puerto Rico, Turkey and Singapore, as well as with contributions cutting across geographical and temporal boundaries, this volume addresses such issues as architecture technology, place and memory - critical issues in the monitoring and mapping of identity shift within a rapidly globalising context. With contributions from renowned authors in the field including Nicholas Temple, Patsy Hely, Robert Brown, Liane Lefaivre, John Hendrix, Ana Souto, Fiona MacLaren, Stephen Walker, Nezar AlSayyad, Andrzej Piotrowski, Catherine Ettinger, Luz Marie Rodriguez, and Raymond Quek this book presents fresh insights and diverse perspectives on the evolving question of identity and globalisation.
