The Modern Village in Franco's Spain studies the reconstruction of the towns devastated between 1936 and 1939. It analyses the ideological, political, and urbanistic principles of Franco's hydro-social programme of modernisation of the countryside through the creation of man-made landscapes (Kulturlandschaften) of dams, irrigation canals, electric power plants, and new settlements - a genuine experiment in water urbanism. The consequent strategy of interior colonisation entailed the construction of 300 new villages or pueblos, each designed as a 'rural utopia' centred on a plaza mayor, which embodied, between tradition and modernity, the political ideal of civil life under the national-catholic regime. In the 1950s - 1960s, a new generation of architects, including José Luis Fernández del Amo, Alejandro de la Sota, and Antonio Fernández Alba, reimagined the pueblos as platforms of urban and architectonic experimentation in their search for an abstracted rural vernacular and an organic urban form merging with the landscape."--From back cover. 7a1939-19752fast 0aCity planningzSpainxHistoryy20th century. 0aCities and townszSpainxHistoryy20th century. 0aVillageszSpainxHistory. 7aVillages.2fast 0aSpainxHistoryy1939-1975. 7aSpain.2fast 7aHistory.2fast 2lccc27hHT169.S65kGeneralmL43 2021 c301620d301620 00102lcc4070a4b4c33d2023-05-30eDOM Publisherg29.53l0oGeneral HT169.S65 L43 2021p91000000071555r2024-01-30 16:43:18t1v39.53w2023-05-30y27
