Musdienu kulturas stavokli / Conditions for Contemporary Culture. Riga - O. Redbergs
OverzichtText and photography essays by 20 remarkable Northern European Authors in a bilingual Book devoted to Riga. This book tries to identify and analyze the conditions underlying the development of contemporary Latvian culture and civic society. During the production of this publication, an interdisciplinary space for the exchange of thoughts was created allowing to gain better understanding in the structure of this society, its potential, strengths and weaknesses and to understand how these qualities could be used in a positive way to support further development within the age of knowledge and cultural economics. This book comprises authors who have devoted their work to post-socialist, post-colonial Riga and Latvia and therefore have come across and experienced the most common and topical issues of this place. Although these authors represent different fields of study, all of them have previously expressed independent, critical and well-grounded views in the mass media about the concept of culture, models of social relations, historic notions and interpretations as well as other issues which influence society's overall understanding of culture therefore having a strong impact on its further development. The book includes essays by architects and philosophers Juhani Pallasmaa and Alexander Rappaport.
Het boek bevat enkele tientallen (kleuren) foto's.
