Political Architecture Germany

Political Architecture in Germany- an Expression of National Identity?

Architecture is one of the traditional means of political representation. But buildings do not just make an aesthetic statement: architecture plays a crucial role in communicating ideas and ideologies within politico-social transfer processes. Looking at the Reichstag Building or the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin – to name but a few –, the course will explore the ways in which architecture and its messages can play a crucial part in a nation’s (or state’s) identity formation processes.
