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.Binding Type: Paperback

High quality
Scent: Bright Coffee, Size: 4.06 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been very happy with this Batana Oil. It feels like a high-quality, 100% raw and natural product. Since adding it to my hair care routine, my hair has felt softer, more moisturized, and healthier overall. I’ve also noticed less breakage and improved manageability.

It’s nice! Love b.tan products
Color: Ultra Dark Bronze
Works well, I had a nice glow after one sit in a tanning bed using it. Nice smell, watery base. Make note that it’s an accelerant as well as a TINT, my hands and feet had some splotching after because I didn’t know that.

Works great!
Color: Ultra Dark Bronze
This stuff is magical. Goes on dry, not greasy but be careful, no spf so you may burn but what a tan! Also smells of tanning bed spray. Used it at the beach! Incredible!

Great Natural Tan, Just A Little Tacky
Color: Ultra Dark Bronze
This tanning spray definitely helps give a nice natural-looking tan without looking orange or streaky.
I’ve used it outside in the sun, in the tanning bed, and while floating in the pool, and it worked well in all three situations.
The only downside for me is that it feels very tacky on the skin after applying.
Because of that, I definitely prefer using it while relaxing in the pool since it feels less noticeable there.
Overall, the tan results are really pretty and natural, so I’ll keep using it despite the sticky feeling.
