The Routledge Companion to Contemporary Architectural History
offers a comprehensive and up-to-date knowledge report on recent
developments in architectural production and research. Divided into

charts diversity, criticality, and creativity in architectural
interventions to meet challenges and enact changes in different parts
of the world through featured exemplars and fresh theoretical
orientations.
The collection features 29 chapters written by
leading architectural scholars and highlights the reciprocity between
the historical and the contemporary, research and practice, and
disciplinary and professional knowledge. Providing an essential map for
navigating the complex currents of contemporary architecture, the
Companion will interest students, academics, and practitioners who wish
to bolster their understanding of built environments.
