With the deep faith in its Arab and Islamic belonging, both in identity and location, and upon its belief in the importance of the cultural work as a base to establish a large Arab community and as an engine to a comprehensive evolution in all aspects of life, Kuwait took upon itself the task of developing the Arab culture and exporting it to the Arab nation. Culture is indeed a cumulative work that benefits from the work of the past yet aiming towards the future to make a new tomorrow and a better life. Since its inception, and as the cultural arm of the State of Kuwait, the National Council for Culture, Arts and Letters has had a keen interest in the implementation of the State’s plan to enhance and promote the cultural development, not only locally but also in the entire Arab culture.

English language. doi: 10.1386/ijia.4.2.365_1 ŁUKASZ STANEK University of Manchester Mobilities of Architecture in the Global Cold War: From Socialist Poland to Kuwait and Back Abstract Keywords This article discusses the contribution of professionals from socialist countries to Gulf architecture architecture and urban planning in Kuwait in the final two decades of the Cold War. socialist Poland In so doing, it historicizes the accelerating circulation of labour, building materials, architectural discourses, images, and affects facilitated by world-wide, regional and local networks. globalization By focusing on a group of Polish architects, this article shows how their work in postmodernism Kuwait in the 1970s and 1980s responded to the disenchantment with architecture knowledge transfer and urbanization processes of the preceding two decades, felt as much in the Gulf as architectural labour in socialist Poland. In Kuwait, this disenchantment was expressed by a turn towards images, ways of use, and patterns of movement referring to ‘traditional’ urbanism, reinforced by Western debates in postmodernism and often at odds with the social realities of Kuwaiti urbanization. Rather than considering this shift as an architec- tural ‘mediation’ between (global) technology and (local) culture, this article shows how it was facilitated by re-contextualized expert systems, such as construction tech- nologies or Computer Aided Design software (CAD), and also by the specific portable ‘profile’ of experts from socialist countries. By showing the multilateral knowledge flows of the period between Eastern Europe and the Gulf, this article challenges diffusionist notions of architecture’s globalization as ‘Westernization’ and reconcep- tualizes the genealogy of architectural practices as these became world-wide.
