Das geteilte Europa war nach dem Ende des zweiten Weltkriegs durch die Phase des Wiederaufbaus geprägt. Diese wurde durch die unterschiedlichen politischen Systeme beeinflusst: im sozialistischen Osten wie auch im kapitalistischen Westen ging es um den Zusammenhalt der Gesellschaft sowie um deren kulturellen und baulichen Ausdruck. Parallel zur schnell einsetzenden Industrialisierung des Bauwesens wurden auf beiden Seiten intensive Debatten über die Humanisierung der gebauten Umwelt geführt. Der Band zeigt, wie vor dem Hintergrund von Existentialismus, New Monumentality und sozialistischem Realismus durchaus ähnliche Konzepte und Strategien entwickelt wurden, um Antworten auf die Frage nach adäquaten Strukturen für neue Formen von Gemeinschaft und Identität zu geben.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
