具体描述
An exploration of the intimate and inextricable relationship between architecture, power, money and politics in the twentieth century. How and why have presidents, prime ministers, mayors, millionaires and bishops come to share such a fascination with architecture? From Blair to Mitterrand, from Hitler to Stalin to Saddam Hussein, architecture has become an end in itself, as well as a means to an end. This is a book of genuine timeliness, throwing new light on the aspirations and the motivations of the rich and powerful across the world - and on the political nature of contemporary culture.

Deyan Sudjic was born in London of Yugoslav parents. He divides his time between London, where he is architecture critic for the Observer and a visiting professor at the Royal College of Art, and Milan, where for many years he edited Domus, the international magazine of art, architecture and design. He was Director of the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2002 and is author of the much-praised 100-Miles City, the best-selling Architecture Pack, and monographs on John Pawson, Ron Arad and Richard Rogers.

《权力与建筑》这样的翻译，再加上封面添上尼采的警句——“建筑是一种权力的雄辩术”，让人很容易把尼采的《权力意志》误以为是这本书的理论支持。我在网上买的这本书，看着封面图片和目录，在看书之前都以为是理论加分析的建筑书。但是当我草草翻过书中提到建筑过程中的...
从建筑本业到时尚潮流，在各种报章杂志里，建筑是一种艺术创作，报导总是环绕着建筑师的设计理念与手法，以及建筑物呈现出来的创作价值。但是事实上，如本书所呈现的：建筑不只是艺术。 作者认为，建筑常常与政治同在。〈觐见元首的长路〉中，亚伯特．施佩尔（Albert Speer）...
