Reseña del libro "Political Postmodernisms: Architecture in Chile and Poland, 1970–1990 (Architext) (en Inglés)"
Political Postmodernisms: Architecture in Chile and Poland, 1970-1990 shows how sites outside of Western Europe and North America undermine an established narrative of architecture theory and history. It focuses specifically on postmodern architecture, which is traditionally understood as embodying the flippant and apolitical aesthetics of capitalist affluence. By investigating postmodern architecture's manifestations in the unlikely settings of Chile during the neoliberal dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet and Poland during the late socialist Polish People's Republic, the book argues for a new account that incorporates the political roles postmodernism plays when seen in a global perspective. The book has three goals. First, it challenges the familiar narrative regarding postmodern architecture as following the "cultural logic of late capitalism", as a socially conservative project, or as "the new corporate style" of neoliberalism in the Reagan era. Second, it fills in portions of Chilean and Polish architectural history that have been neglected by Chilean and Polish architectural historians themselves. Third, it shows how architecture can work as a political form - serving propagandistic purposes and functioning as part of oppositional projects. It focuses particularly on what "dissent" can mean in architecture - an enterprise that is always an expression of authority structures as its manifestation depends upon state approval or support.
