Architectural Positions presents the views of thirty-six international architects who, over the past fifty years, have made their voices heard in the debate on the public sphere. They include Luis Barragan, Peter Eisenman, Louis Kahn, Rem Koolhaas, Leon Krier, Daniel Libeskind, Aldo Rossi, Bernard Tschumi and Oswald Mathias Ungers. The essays in this book give an overview of the past fifty years of architectural discourse on this theme. A detailed introduction provides background and context, focusing on the links between architecture, modernity, and the public sphere.
