| Zusammenfassung: | "What is the relevance of the Chandigarh experiment today? Written by an esteemed scholar and former resident of the city, this fascinating book re-evaluates Le Corbusier's work in Chandigarh in terms of the pressing challenges of the present, in particular climate change, globalization, neo-nationalism and information technology. Through a lively poststructuralist and postcolonial framework, the book explores issues of preservation, identity, meaning, and change, comparing how the Chandigarh we see today compares to the original plans and drawings. But the book also asks whether Chandigarh's aesthetics, as well as the ethical tenets on which it was based, are still relevant to urban planning and landscape architecture today. What lessons, if any, does the utopian ethos within modernism offer in the face of the climate crisis, rising authoritarianism and the digital explosion? Via chapters focused on the hydrologics of the master-plan, the symbolism of the Capitol buildings and the archaeology of the unbuilt Museum of Knowledge, this book makes the future-preservation case for Chandigarh as an 'open' work, a project that was set up by design to be 'completed' by others in times yet to come. Engaging and erudite throughout, the book will appeal to any student, scholar or professional with an interest in architecture, landscape architecture and urban planning" |
