Constructing a Sense of Place

Architecture and the Zionist Discourse (Design and the Built Environment)

de Haim Yacobi

"The book first of all sets out the wider context of theoretical debates concerning the role of architecture in the process of constructing a sense of place then divides into six main sections. The book not only provides an innovative new perspective on how the Israeli state had developed, but also sheds light on how architecture shapes national identity in any post-colonial and settler state."--Jacket.
