1960; following as it did the last CIAM meeting; signalled a turning point for the Modern Movement. From then on; architecture was influenced by seminal texts by Aldo Rossi and Robert Venturi; and gave rise to the first revisionary movement following Modernism. Bringing together leading experts in the field; this book provides a comprehensive; critical overview of the developments in architecture from 1960 to 2010. It consists of two parts: the first section providing a presentation of major movements in architecture after 1960; and the second; a geographic survey that covers a wide range of territories around the world. This book not only reflects the different perspectives of its various authors; but also charts a middle course between the aesthetic histories that examine architecture solely in terms of its formal aspects; and the more ideological histories that subject it to a critique that often skirts the discussion of its formal aspects.
