Description

Explore the complex relationship between modern architecture and development in Africa with this scholarly work from Routledge. As UNESCO seeks to address the under-representation of African sites on the World Heritage List, this book examines the nineteenth- and twentieth-century modern architecture and urban planning that define the continent's changing landscape. This title investigates the utopias of progress and the complicated legacies of modernization. It looks at how modern heritage must reckon with problematic futures of the past, making it a vital resource for those studying how recent culture and urban development intersect on the African continent. Whether you are researching urban planning, architectural theory, or cultural development, this book provides a deep look into the preservation of modern history.
