Description

Colonial Frames, Nationalist Histories explores the complex intersections of architecture, urbanism, colonialism, nationalism and modernity in the twentieth century. This Routledge Studies in Architecture volume examines how newly decolonized nations employed architectural design and urban planning to represent their emerging modernity and establish national identity through symbolic spaces and capital city projects. The book critically analyses the role of individual agents including planners, architects, and bourgeois citizens in shaping nation-building projects, moving beyond simplistic narratives to reveal how architectural modernization served multiple ideological purposes. Scholars and students of architecture, urban history, postcolonial studies and cultural geography will find essential perspectives on how built environments reflect and reinforce power structures, national aspirations, and cultural legacies inherited from colonial periods. This academic text provides rigorous historical analysis of how physical spaces became tools for asserting sovereignty and constructing modern national identities across formerly colonized regions.
