Abstract

Judith Shapiro, in clear and compelling prose, relates the great, untold story of the devastating impact of Chinese politics on China's environment during the Mao years. Maoist China provides an example of extreme human interference in the natural world in an era in which human relationships were also unusually distorted. Under Mao, the traditional Chinese ideal of 'harmony between heaven and humans' was abrogated in favor of Mao's insistence that 'People Will Conquer Nature'. Mao and the Chinese Communist Party's 'war' to bend the physical world to human will often had disastrous consequences both for human beings and the natural environment. Mao's War Against Nature argues that the abuse of people and the abuse of nature are often linked. Shapiro's account, told in part through the voices of average Chinese citizens and officials who lived through and participated in some of the destructive campaigns, is both eye-opening and heartbreaking.

Abstract

"Le présent ouvrage invite à une plongée au pays de l'architecture, des expériences et des réflexions qu'elle a inspirées, et qui se veulent à la fois témoignages et éléments d'une méthodologie. Où en sommes-nous dans le partage entre patrimoine architectural et monument historique ? Et dans le brouillard de la mondialisation, quels rôles vont-ils jouer demain pour venir au secours des identités culturelles à la dérive ? Quelles mesures pratiques sont requises pour répondre à ce défi ? C'est au pays de l'espoir nécessaire que les architectes sont attendus pour assurer la survie, mais plus encore le sourire du patrimoine architectural". (4ème de couverture)
