Notes:
""The fundamental premise of the Architecture of the 21st century cycle of events is to place the architecture of the future in a broader social context. We are not interested so much in buildings, architects' approaches or new technological possibilities as in everything that has had an impact on the architecture of societies: the ways citizens are (self)organised, the connections between architecture and economics, the social impact of buildings and speculations as to possible future scenarios. Economists, philosophers and writers admit that we are on the verge of realizing that the hitherto principles governing the way society functions no longer work, although we still don't know what should replace them. An empty space emerges which has to be filled with something. The world today is xabuzz with the search for answers. It is precisely this phenomenon of the twenty-first century that we would like to capture through this publication."
