<p>Esta entrevista se realizó el 6 de septiembre de 2019 con Kenneth Frampton, Ware Professor à la Graduate school of architecture, planning, and preservation, Columbia University of New York. Esta conversación forma parte de una serie de entrevistas con destacados historiadores y arquitectos que marcan la primera generación de estudios sobre la figura y la obra de Le Corbusier, realizada con el apoyo de la Fundación Le Corbusier. Este intercambio filmado y transcrito cuestiona el terreno en el que Kenneth Frampton ha estudiado a Le Corbusier e integrado la obra del arquitecto en su investigación sobre la arquitectura moderna. Aborda cuestiones relacionadas con la arquitectura y los edificios de Le Corbusier (como la Unité d’habitation, las villas Roq y Rob y la Maison de week-end); el proyecto del Movimiento Moderno y la influencia de sus ideas antes y después de las guerras mundiales en Europa, Londres, Gran Bretaña y la escena americana. Figuras como el Atelier 5, Peter Eisenman, Lluis Sert e instituciones como la Conference of Architects for the Study of the Environment y Harvard, así como una comprensión más profunda de nociones como el regionalismo crítico o lo vernáculo en la obra de Le Corbusier también han sido temas de conversación. Frampton evoca su relación con Le Corbusier y habla de sus escritos, como editor técnico de la revista Architectural Design y posteriormente como historiador, con la edición de Modern Architecture: A Critical History.</p>

AbstractThe essays assembled in this volume were initially presented at the concluding conference of the International Doctoral School “InterArt Studies” held at the Freie Universität Berlin from June 25-27, 2015. The school bore the label “international” not just because its students hailed from five different continents. Rather, it was called that because it was born out of the collaboration with the Copenhagen Doctoral School in Cultural Studies, Literature and the Arts, later joined by the Doctoral School of Goldsmiths College, London, and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at Columbia University, New York. During these nine years (2006-2015) of research, it was generously funded by the German Research Council.

In recognition of the gravity of the unemployment situation in the-Third World the Ford Foundation sponsored three international seminars to-identify the major issues of the problem. The focus of these seminars was on inter-relationship between employment and development strategy, technological change, rural development and political constraints on choice. Some of the papers presented in these seminars are collected in the book under review. Edgar O. Edwards did a commendable job of writing a summary of the papers, which he has presented in the first paper of the book. The competing demands of brevity and full coverage restricted the summary to an identification of principal issues and major recommendations for policy makers and donor agencies. The first paper is followed by Part I of the book consisting of three subject papers on: (1) Economic Development and Labour Use, (2) Technology and Employment in LDCs and (3) Economics, Institutions and Employment Generation in Rural Areas. A selection of seven papers on Generic Issues is presented in Part II of the book. Part III consists of five papers on some sectoral considerations. The last four papers, constituting Part IV of the book, describe the experiences of different countries in employment promotion and economic development.
