How can these forces be set aside by new narratives, new organizations and new methods of production? How can we sit at the decision-making table to combat short-term real estate interests for longer-term social and ethical value? How can we pull architecture-its conceptualization, its pedagogy, and its enactment-into the 21st century without succumbing to its neoliberal paradigm? In addressing these controversial questions, \u003ci\u003eArchitecture and Labor\u003c\/i\u003e brings contemporary discourses on creative labor to architecture, a discipline devoid of labor consciousness.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book addresses how, not just what, architects produce and focuses not on the past but on the present. It is sympathetic to the particularly intimate way that architects approach their design work while contextualizing that work historically, institutionally, economically, and ideologically. \u003ci\u003eArchitecture and Labor\u003c\/i\u003e is sure to be a compelling read for pre-professional students, academics, and practitioners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeggy Deamer\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor Emerita of Yale University's School of Architecture and principal in the firm of Deamer, Studio.
