Abstract

American architecture has created a symbol for itself in the skyscraper. It is a typology that seems to shout Yes we can!, and the superpower lives by these words to this day. As a little boy, President Barack Obama dreamed of becoming an ar-chitect. Now, those who have fulfilled this dream demonstrate how architecture in the USA has moved on past the skyscraper. The generously illustrated volume from the trilingual Collection series reflects the complete bandwidth of the architecture of this vast nation. Top contemporary projects completed in the last few years have been selected, representing many different categories, including residential houses, office buildings and government buildings as well as sports facilities, research laboratories and museums.

Abstract

John Adams was ondertekenaar en een van de geestelijk vaders van de Amerikaanse Declaration of Independence en hij was de tweede president van de VS (was eerst vice-president onder George Washington). Zijn leven leest als een spannend jongensboek met een enorme hoeveelheid boeiende details over het leven op de grens van 18de en 19de eeuw. Wat de grondslagen van de Amerikaanse democratie betreft leert dit boek mij voornamelijk de oorsprong van het Amerikaanse vrijheidsbegrip. De centrale gedachte van John Adams was dat elk volk het recht heeft zelf te mogen kiezen wie het als leider accepteert. Maar Adams ging daarbij niet uit van de souvereiniteit van het volk. Hij wilde een land geregeerd door wetten. De wetten dicteren wat de bestuurders wel en niet mogen doen. De individuele burgers (in de tijd van Adams de grondeigenaren) moesten daarbij alle ruimte krijgen om in vrijheid hun eigen leven te leiden.
