ArchitectureWeek Description The profession of architecture is increasingly characterized by divergent political, social, technological, and economic ideas and agendas. Much of current practice focuses on the process of architecture rather than its meaning. This issue of the Yale Architectural Journal explores the practice of architecture after the breakdown of consensus or dominant ideology. A variety of essays take on globalization, urbanism, pedagogy, irony, as well as form, theory, and ideology, to address broader questions about the social, economic, and political fallout from these modes of practice.
