Résumé:

First published in France in 1980, this book was awarded the "Grand Prix de la Critique d'Architecture". It examines the author's hypothesis about the tradition of theorizing architecture and urbanism, demonstrating that this discourse has been organized by two formulations: the rule and the model.
