DESCRIPTION:Marco Assennato\nArchitecture and politics\, criticism\, and h
 istory all come together in this volume\, which analyses an important chap
 ter in the antagonist thinking of the 1970s and opens up some new avenues 
 of research into the role\, function\, and unexplored possibilities of the
  art of building within contemporary urbanization. Specialized in the work
 s of Manfredo Tafuri\, the author shows how the operative criticism of arc
 hitecture was able to draw the ideological boundaries of the discipline an
 d the material contours of a decisive sector of contemporary production\, 
 through a brilliant encounter between philosophy and technology\, politica
 l militantism\, and professional practices. In fact\, this study is a perf
 ect accompaniment to the re-publication of  Projet et Utopie by Entremond
 e\, one of Manfredo Tafuri's classic texts. It provides both an introducti
 on to and an exhaustive analysis of a work that needs to be rediscovered.\
 n\nMarco Assennato (Palermo\, 1978) is a philosopher with a doctorate in a
 rchitecture. He teaches at ENSA-Paris Malaquais and\, with Guillemette Mor
 el-Journel\, co-directs the ACS research laboratory. He is the author of L
 a muse inquiétante – Architecture & Société chez Manfredo Tafuri\,
  edition Mix\, Paris\, 2019.\n
