ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rowe, Peter G. / Kuan, Seng, PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), Built around snatches of discussion overheard in a Beijing design studio, this book explores attitudes toward architecture in China since the opening of the Treaty Ports in the s.

Ti ong>andong> yong have gone through various transong>formong>ations--for example, from "Chinese learning for essential principles ong>andong> Western learning for practical application" to "socialist essence ong>andong> cultural ong>formong>" ong>andong> an almost complete reversal to "modern essence ong>andong> Chinese ong>formong>."

It then considers the return of overseas-educated Chinese architects ong>andong> foreign influences on Chinese architecture, four architectural orientations toward tradition ong>andong> modernity in the s ong>andong> s, ong>andong> the controversy over the use of "big roofs" ong>andong> other sinicizing aspects of Chinese architecture in the s. The book then moves to the hard economic conditions of the Great Leap Forward ong>andong> the Cultural Revolution, when architecture was almost abong>andong>oned, ong>andong> the beginning of reong>formong> ong>andong> opening up to the outside world in the late s ong>andong> s. Finally, it looks at the present socialist market economy ong>andong> Chinese architecture during the still incomplete process of modernization. It closes with a prognosis for the future.
