Reviews

Brilliantly questioning the figure of development that haunts modernism, Aggregate gets down to the dirt of the Bretton-Woods world: the entanglement of architectural discourse in food insecurity and mining infrastructures, debt servicing and dictators, supply chains of materials and expertise. A must-read for architectural thinkers. Swati Chattopadhyay, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA This timely book addresses a major blind spot in contemporary architectural scholarship: the central role of the design disciplines in the processes of modern, postcolonial development in creating the exclusions and inequalities of our time. Fernando Lara, Potter Rose Professorship, University of Texas at Austin, USA
