[347]-376) and index. 520 1 $a "This new, expanded edition of Architecture, Power, and National Identity examines how architecture and urban design have been manipulated in the service of politics. Focusing on the design of parliamentary complexes in capital cities across the world, it shows how these places reveal the struggles for power and identity in multicultural nation-states. Building on the prize-winning first edition, Yale updates the text and illustrations to account for recent sociopolitical changes, includes discussion of several newly built places, and assesses the enhanced concerns for security that have preoccupied regimes in politically volatile countries. The book is truly global in scope, looking at capital cities in North America and Europe, as well as in India, Brazil, Sri Lanka, Kuwait, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Tanzania, Papua New Guinea, and Australia. Ultimately, Yale presents an engaging, incisive combination of history, politics, and architecture to chart the evolution of state power and national identity, updated for the twenty-first century. Lawrence Vale is the Head of the Department of Urban Studies and Planning at MIT."--BOOK JACKET. 650 0 $a Capitols. 650 0 $a Architecture $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Architecture and society. 650 4 $a Capitolios. 650 4 $a Arquitectura $x Aspectos poliÌticos. 650 4 $a Arquitectura y sociedad. 856 42 $z Additional Information at Google Books $u http://books.google.com/books?isbn=9780415955140 856 41 $3 Table of contents only $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0724/2007032656.html 941 $a 4 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718084535.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171227015701.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20100405101519.0 952 $l PTAX572 $d 20090806113132.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6DB5F86C6C0311DEA13FF332A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IOKInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
