Author: Karin Hartmann
According to a recent study, sexism and racism are so widespread in architecture that there is a distaste for these topics within the branch itself. Most architecture graduates since the turn of the millennium have been female but many do not remain in the profession. This book uses an intersectional feminist perspective to examine the structural causes that push women – and anyone else who isn’t a white cis man – out of the branch. How can architectural teaching and discourse as well as the industry’s self-image become more diverse? Where are the experiences of a pluralistic society missing from the built environment? How can we bring about cultural change in planning and architecture?
ISBN 9783868597301. JOVIS. pb. 160 pages. 20 colour & b/w ills. 13 x 20.2 cm.
