Book Details
Table of Contents
Architectural competitions are no longer simply professional praxis for architects, organizers and a recurrent exercise for students at schools of architecture
The competition has also turned into a field of research, and this book is part of an effort constituting the architectural competition as a field for studies with scholarly claims
The first doctoral dissertations on competitions were presented in the 1990s in Europe
Another clear manifestation of research interest is the growth and spread of scholarly conferences on architectural competitions
To be in the position of presenting accounts that are exciting as well as instructive and informative on the subject of architectural competitions is a pleasure
The contributions to the book show in a convincing way that the architectural competition is an interesting and rewarding object for research
The competition processes bear rich empirical findings to which one may refer for knowledge about architecture as professional practice, as educational subject and research platform
The architectural competition illustrates processes of change in society that are technical and organizational as well as social; it shows up constructive dilemmas, the borderline of rationality and the relative, creative insecurity of knowledge production in architectural projects.
