Description

This anthology of essays by distinguished scholars examines post-1945 city planning in Britain through a polemical, visual and educational lens, moving beyond technical analysis to explore the emotional and aesthetic dimensions of post-war urban development. Grounded in original archival research, each contribution illuminates this transformative period in modern town planning history. The collection addresses the often-neglected cultural and visual aspects of planning policy, making it an essential resource for architectural historians, urban historians, social historians, students and researchers seeking fresh perspectives on how Britain rebuilt its cities and communities after the Second World War.

Valuable resource for architectural, social and urban historians studying the development of modern town planning.

Explores planning as a polemical, visual and educational phenomenon, shifting scholarly focus towards often-neglected aspects of post-war British urbanism.
