MUZHARUL ISLAM: A PIONEER IN RETROSPECT

Muzharul Islam is the pioneer of modern architecture in Bangladesh. He blended

the contemporary style with vernacular architecture and materials which created a
new language in the landscape of the nation. He believed and involved
architecture as a tool to create socio-economic balance within the social classes in
an era when architecture was used as a weapon to express power. His life,
philosophy and some important projects are discussed in this article.

Circulation and Urbanization (Sage)
Circulation and Urbanization is a foundational investigation into the history of the
urban. Moving beyond both canonical and empirical portrayals, the book
approaches the urban through a genealogy of circulation – a concept central to
Western political thought and its modes of spatial planning. Locating architectural
knowledge in a wider network of political history, legal theory, geography, sociology
and critical theory, and drawing on maritime, territorial and colonial histories,
Adams contends that the urban arose in the nineteenth century as an anonymous,

Second World Postmodernisms: Architecture and
Society under Late Socialism (London: Bloomsbury,
2019)
If postmodernism is indeed “the cultural logic of late capitalism,” why did typical
postmodernist themes like ornament, color, history and identity find their
application in the architecture of the communist-socialist Second World? How do
we explain the retreat into paper architecture and theoretical discussion in
societies still nominally devoted to socialist modernisation? Exploring the
intersection of two areas of growing scholarly interest-postmodernism and the
architecture of the socialist and former-communist world-this edited collection
stakes out new ground as the first work to...
