The Routledge Handbook of Architecture and Social Enagagement examines architecture as it changes from being a market-driven profession by looking at socio-political, professional, and philosophical aspects of the field through theory and case studies. Topics in the 35 new essays by global contributors include public interest design, scarcity and poverty, participatory design, empowerment, service learning, professionalism, commodification, trauma, and humanitarianism, among others. Case studies in the United States, South America, the United Kingdom, Africa, Australia, China, and South and Southeast Asia, illustrated with 175 black and white images demonstrate ideas discussed.
