»The Object of Zionism: The Architecture of Israel« is a critical study of Zionist spatial planning and the architectural fabrication of the State of Israel from the early decades of the twentieth century to the 1960s and 1970s. It scrutinizes Israel as a singular modernist project unprecedented in its relative scope and rates of growth, its political and ethical circumstances, and its hyper-production of spatial and structural experiments. This project entailed the molding of a new terrain, the construction of dozens of new towns and hundreds of new rural settlements, and the appropriation of post-war architectural trends, especially Brutalism and Structuralism, as signifiers of national vigour and cultural ingenuity. Contrary to common belief, the State of Israel was not born of emergency routine or speculative ventures, but rather with the objective of designing an instantaneous model state.

Zvi Efrat's »The Object of Zionism« is the most important research undertaken on the history of Israeli architecture to date. [...] Full of original insight and closely tuned to detail, texture and form, this book is itself a piece of architectural construction, and as such is destined to become a contemporary classic. --Eyal Weizman
This is a remarkable work of critical scholarship that relentlessly assembles and interprets a colossal archive. --Beatriz Colomina

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The Object of Zionism. The Architecture of Israel ist eine umfassende kritische Studie zur zionistischen Raumplanungund zum architektonischen Aufbau des Staates Israel während der ersten Jahrzehnte des 20. Jahrhundertsbis in die 1960er- und 1970er-Jahre. Sie untersucht Israel als ein einzigartiges modernistischesProjekt - beispiellos in seinem Umfang, seiner Wachstumsgeschwindigkeit, seinen politischen und ethischenRahmenbedingungen und in seiner Überproduktion räumlicher und struktureller Experimente. Diese formtendas neue Terrain maßgeblich und führten zum Bau dutzender Planstädte und hunderter ländlicher Siedlungensowie zur Aneignung der Architekturbewegungen der Nachkriegszeit - insbesondere des Brutalismusund Strukturalismus - als Signifikanten nationaler Schlagkraft und kultureller Erfindungsgabe. Entgegen derallgemeinen Überzeugung ist der Staat Israel nicht aus einer konstanten Notlage oder aufgrund spekulativerUnternehmungen geboren, sondern eher mit dem Ziel, so schnell wie möglich einen Modell-Staat zu entwerfen. 950 pp. Englisch.
