Description

Explore how post-World War Two governments across Western Europe shaped architectural design through ambitious welfare state programmes. This Routledge publication examines the profound impact of state-funded initiatives including housing, schools, new towns, and cultural centres on architects and architectural practice. Discover how welfare objectives were embedded in architectural design during the Cold War era, revealing the intersection of social policy, urban planning, and modernist architecture. The book traces how governments sought to improve everyday life through redistribution of wealth and social programmes, with architecture serving as a tangible expression of these welfare ideals. Essential reading for understanding the relationship between social policy and the built environment in twentieth-century Europe.
