Race and Modern Architecture: A Critical History from the Enlightenment to the PresentAlthough race a concept of human difference that establishes hierarchies of power and domination has played a critical role in the development of modern architectural discourse and practice since the Enlightenment, its influence on the discipline remains largely underexplored. This volume offers a welcome and long awaited intervention for the field by shining a spotlight on constructions of race and their impact on architecture and theory in Europe

Although race--a concept of human difference that establishes hierarchies of power and domination--has played a critical role in the development of modern architectural discourse and practice since the Enlightenment, its influence on the discipline remains largely underexplored. This volume offers a welcome and long-awaited intervention for the field by shining a spotlight on constructions of race and their impact on architecture and theory in Europe and North America and across various global contexts since the eighteenth century. Challenging us to write race back into architectural history, contributors confront how racial thinking has intimately shaped some of the key concepts of modern architecture and culture over time, including freedom, revolution, character, national and indigenous style, progress, hybridity, climate, representation, and radicalism. By analyzing how architecture has intersected with histories of slavery, colonialism, and inequality--from eighteenth-century neoclassical governmental buildings to present-day housing projects for immigrants--Race and Modern Architecture challenges, complicates, and revises the standard association of modern architecture with a universal project of emancipation and progress.

Hard to rub in. Leaves strong white residue

So hard to rub in. If you have squirming running toddlers this is impossible to apply.

It’s nice, and it works!
Size: Pack of 1
This is a great product. It’s smooth and soothing - great for chapped lips. The flavor is nice too. Best of all, it works! My lips are prone to getting freckles, and I’m not getting any since I started using this. I recommend this, and the sunscreen by the same company. I use SPF 50 for sensitive skin.
