Nathan Glazer (February 25, 1923 - January 19, 2019) was an American sociologist who taught at the University of California, Berkeley, and for several decades at Harvard University. Known for books such as Beyond the Melting Pot, which deal with race and ethnicity. Mark Lilla (born 1956) is an American political scientist, historian of ideas, journalist, and professor of humanities at Columbia University in New York City. A frequent contributor to the New York Review of Books, The New York Times, and publications worldwide, he is best known for his books The Once and Future Liberal: After Identity Politics, The Reckless Mind: Intellectuals in Politics, The Stillborn God: Religion, Politics, and the Modern West, and The Shipwrecked Mind: On Political Reaction. He joined Columbia University in 2007 as Professor of the Humanities. In an effort to examine the state of disarray of contemporary public architecture, this collection of essays provides opinions and commentary on how the appearance of buildings has reflected society over time and what improvements need to be made in today's designs. Highlighting the issues of today's architecture, editors Nathan Glazer and Mark Lilla put together a collection of essays that aim to create critical and responsible appraisal of today's building projects and urban plans. This provocative book brings together nearly thirty thoughtful essays that explore what vital public architecture has meant in the past and what it should mean in the future. Covering topics such as the philosophical, historical, and practical principles of publics spaces, conflicts over the funding and placement of public art, and civic architecture's relation to political order, the strong minded and consistently clear authors of these essays provide insight on the all too often ill-conceived and uninspired American public architecture of the modern day and how it reflects our confusions about public life itself.
