Description

In the years prior to the fall of the Berlin Wall; the leaders of the German Democratic Republic planned to construct a city center that was simultaneously modern and historical; consisting of both redesign of old buildings and new architectural developments. Drawing from recently released archival sources and interviews with former key government officials; decision-makers and architects; this book sheds light not only on this unique programme in postmodern design; but also on the debates which were taking place with the Socialist government.
