Description

Modern Architecture and its Representation in Colonial Eritrea provides a critical examination of architecture and urbanism developed in Eritrea during the Italian colonial period from 1890-1941. This scholarly work analyses how imperial projects, modernist aesthetics, and fascist ideologies combined to create a distinctive built environment that reflected and reshaped Italian colonial ambitions. As Italy's first colony, Eritrea and its capital Asmara represent a unique case study in how political power, architectural design, and colonial strategy intersected during this pivotal historical period. The book explores the complex relationship between European modernism and colonial urbanism, offering insights into how architecture functioned as a tool of imperial representation and control. Essential reading for scholars and students of colonial history, architectural criticism, and African urban development.
