Modernising Post-war France

Architecture and Urbanism during Les Trente Glorieuses

Beschreibung

This book is about the role played by architects, engineers and planners in transforming France during the three post-war decades of growing prosperity, a period when modernisation was a central priority of the state, promising a way forward from the shame of defeat in 1940 to a place at the centre of the new Europe.
